...CARIBBEAN SEA & LOCAL REGION...
No disturbance of importance to the local
weather at this time. Generally dry weather
will prevail during this forecast period.

Otherwise, Saharan Dust concentrations will
increase during this forecast period. This
will make for hazy skies and induce air of
a lower quality. People sensitive for changes
in the air quality must continue to monitor
this feature and take the necessary precautions.

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 7 feet,
locally reaching 8 feet.

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