Discussion Valid from 6:00 AM 2808/2026

Special features:
Tropical Storm Dolly was located 1840 km east of the
Leeward Islands in the Central Atlantic, moving west
at 39 km/hr. Dolly is expected to degenerate into an
open wave before it reaches the Leeward Islands.
Dolly is no danger to the local region.

...CARIBBEAN SEA & LOCAL REGION...
No significant precipitation is expected at this
time as shallow moisture is present in the region.
A next tropical wave is about to enter the eastern
Caribbean. This will add moisture to the region
later today and during the weekend, likely
inducing a few brief showers by then.

Otherwise, low concentrations of Saharan Dust are
expected during this forecast period. However, people
sensitive to 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 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 with seas of 4 to 5 feet,
locally reaching 6 feet.

Operators of small craft must exercise caution on
the east to northwest coastal sections...
