...CARIBBEAN SEA & LOCAL REGION...
The ridge pattern will continue to support
moderate to strong winds and mostly fair
weather conditions. Winds will diminish
a bit by friday into saturday but will
increase again by early next week.

Otherwise, a significant increase in Saharan
Dust is expected from Friday, resulting in
a low air quality and also restricting the
visibility. People sensitive for changes
in the air quality must continue to monitor
this feature and take precautions,
if necessary.

Marine conditions:
Smooth to slight seas are in place on the protected
south sites. Slight seas are noted on the exposed
south sides with seas of around 2 to locally 4 feet.
Generally moderate seas are noted over the east to
northwest coastal areas with seas of 5 to 7 feet.

Small Craft exercise caution over the east to
northwest coastal sections...
