BVI Marine Forecast Synopsis
A surface high pressure in the Western Atlantic will continue to maintain light to moderate east to southeast winds for the rest of the afternoon and tonight. However, winds will gradually weaken and become light from the south-southwest as a surface low develops north of Puerto Rico and weakens the pressure gradient Wednesday onward. Seas will generally subside through Friday, though the arrival of a north-northwesterly swell arrives Friday into the weekend, building seas across the local Atlantic waters and Caribbean passages, creating locally hazardous conditions for small craft. Shower and thunderstorm activity is forecast to increase across the regional waters on Thursday and Friday, bringing gusty winds, slightly reduced visibility, and lightning.
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.
