BVI Marine Forecast Synopsis
A weak tropical wave will approach the region later today and into tonight, bringing increased moisture and passing showers across the local waters. Moderate easterly trade winds will prevail through the rest of the weekend under the influence of surface high pressure over the Atlantic. However, winds may briefly weaken as the pressure gradient relaxes. Afterward, another tropical wave is forecast to approach the eastern Caribbean around Tuesday, bringing more moisture and shower activity along with gradually strengthening easterly winds.
Seas are provided as a range of the average height of the highest 1/3 of the waves, along with the occasional height of the average highest 10 percent of the waves.
