BVI Marine Forecast Synopsis
The remnants of Tropical Storm Dolly will continue to move over the region tonight. Bringing periods of showers and thunderstorms with strong gusty winds. Small craft advisory conditions are expected mainly for the eastern coastal waters of Puerto Rico and the U.S. Virgin Islands, the Atlantic waters, and the Anegada Passage through early Monday. A weak surface high pressure building over the Azores by midweek will promote moderate trades through the workweek. The next tropical wave is expected to reach the local area by the end of the workweek.
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.
