...CARIBBEAN SEA & LOCAL REGION...

Breezy conditions are expected during the
day with winds reaching near gale force in
gusts. Another tropical wave is passing
across the local region westward, bringing
about some moisture. This will induce a few
widely scattered brief showers in the local
region. A drying trend of the atmosphere is
expected during the late morning to afternoon
with than dry weather prevailing.

Furthermore, fluctuating concentrations of
Saharan Dust will 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 take this into
account.

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. Generally moderate seas are noted
over the east to northwest coastal areas. Seas are
here in the range of 4 to 7 feet, locally reaching
8 feet by tonight.

Small Craft must continue to exercise caution
on the east to northwest coastal sections...
A SMALL CRAFT ADVISORY may be needed by tonight
due to the building winds and seas...
