BVI Marine Forecast Synopsis
A surface high pressure system over the eastern to central Atlantic, interacting with surface trough, will promote light to gentle winds during the morning hours then will turn more gentl to moderate from the east- southeast. Pulses of northerly swell spreading across the Atlantic waters are maintaining seas around 5 to 6 feet across exposed areas, where small craft should exercise caution over the next several days. The combination of the front and the trough is increasing showers and thunderstorms across the local waters, creating locally hazardous marine conditions through at least teh rest 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.
