BVI Marine Forecast Synopsis
A tropical wave moving across the Caribbean Sea will continue to bring showers and thunderstorms across portions of the regional waters and passages today. Meanwhile, a surface high pressure extending from the central Atlantic will continue to promote moderate to locally fresh trades through next week. Occasional seas up to 6 feet are expected today across the offshore Atlantic and Caribbean waters, and the Anegada and Mona Passages. Seas and winds are expected to remain below small craft advisory criteria through next week. However, locally stronger winds due to the sea breeze are expected each afternoon across the Atlantic and Caribbean coastal waters of Puerto Rico.
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.
