BVI Marine Forecast Synopsis
An unstable weather pattern across the regional waters will persist through Sunday. Periods of strong thunderstorms, particularly across the western waters of Puerto Rico are expected during the afternoon hours. A surface high pressure over the Atlantic will promote mainly moderate to fresh easterly winds across the offshore Atlantic waters and local Caribbean passages, resulting in moderate to locally choppy seas through the weekend. Small craft operators should exercise caution. A small northeasterly swell will also continue to propagate across the Atlantic waters and Caribbean passages through early next week.
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.
