...CARIBBEAN SEA & LOCAL REGION...
The ridge of the Atlantic high pressure system will
sustain breezy conditions and a strong to near gale
force wind, that can reach gale force in gusts.
Otherwise, moisture left behind by a tropical
wave can induce a passing shower during this
forecast period.

Furthermore, the concentration of Saharan Dust will
fluctuate during this forecast period and induce
slightly hazy to hazy skies and bring air of a
poor quality to the region. People sensitive to
changes in the air quality must be aware of this.

Marine conditions:
Smooth to slight seas are in place on the protected
south sites. Slight to moderate seas are noted on
the exposed south sides with seas of around 2 to
locally 3 feet. Moderate to locally fairly rough
seas are noted over the east to northwest coastal
areas. Seas are here in the range of 4 to 7,
locally 8 feet.

A Small Craft Advisory for the east to northwest
coastal sections is now in effect until Tuesday
6 PM...
