BVI Marine Forecast Synopsis
A high-pressure system over the north-central Atlantic will promote gentle to moderate easterly winds, with seas in the 3 to 5 foot range today. Winds and seas will slightly diminish tonight. A weak frontal boundary north of the region, and a brief pulse of northerly swell spreading across the Atlantic waters, will cause winds to back from the northeast. As a result, seas will increase to 5 to 6 feet from Wednesday night into Thursday. Small craft should exercise caution in the offshore Atlantic waters and local passages during this time. Winds will then veer to an east to southeast direction by the end of the workweek, then becoming more southerly to end the weekend.
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.
