BVI Marine Forecast Synopsis
Hazardous marine conditions are expected to persist through early next week. A strong high-pressure system in the Atlantic will maintain fresh to locally strong easterly winds today, veering to become east- southeasterly late this afternoon through most of the period. When combined with a fading northeasterly swell, seas will remain choppy to rough, particularly across Atlantic waters and local passages. While trade wind showers continue across the region, expect isolated to ⛈️ scattered thunderstorms, especially during the afternoon hours over coastal waters, especially near western and northwestern Puerto Rico. Coverage may increase slightly over the weekend as an upper- level trough arrives, interacting with abundant tropical moisture.
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.
