WEATHER SUMMARY

The Atlantic High Pressure System will continue to maintain light to moderate easterly to southeasterly winds across the Eastern Caribbean region for the next few days.

A weak frontal trough will cause some scattered showers over the extreme northern portion of the region during the next 24 hours.

The lower atmosphere over the remainder of our region will remain relatively dry and stable and as a result mostly fair conditions will prevail over the islands during the forecast period.
