BVI Marine Forecast Synopsis
A surface high pressure system over the central Atlantic will continue to weaken, while a surface low strengthens over the northwestern Atlantic over the next few days. This weakening pressure gradient will promote light to gentle southeasterly winds through at least midweek, becoming more easterly by the latter part of the week. A surface trough over east of Puerto Rico combined with an upper-level trough will bring showers and ⛈️ isolated thunderstorms across the local waters today. Pulses of small, long- period northeasterly swell will continue to spread across the Atlantic waters and local passages for the next few days, though seas should remain between 2 and 4 feet.
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.
