...CARIBBEAN SEA & LOCAL REGION...

Local forecast:
The building ridge of the Atlantic high pressure
system will sustain breezy conditions and strong
to near gale force winds in gusts. Winds can reach
at times gale force in gusts. A weak tropical wave
crossing the eastern Caribbean westward, will
induce some moisture that can likely induce
some brief cloudy periods and a passing shower.
However, generally dry weather conditions will
prevail.

A slight to moderate concentration of Saharan Dust
is now present in the regional atmosphere and will
cause hazy skies and induce air of a poor quality.
People with respiratory conditions are advised to
be aware of this to avoid health complications.

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 fairly rough seas are
present over the east to northwest coastal areas.
Seas are here in the range of 4 to 6, locally reaching
7 to 8 feet.

Seas are building and will reach 7 to 8 to up to
9 feet during the weekend...A small craft advisory
for the east to northwest coastal sections will become
in effect at 6 PM…Meanwhile, operators of small vessels
are advised to exercise caution over the east to northwest
coastal sections...Caution must be exercised elsewhere…
