WEATHER SUMMARY

The Atlantic High Pressure System will continue to generate moderate to brisk easterly winds across the Eastern Caribbean region during the next few days.

Due to a series of weak low level troughs moving across the Eastern Caribbean region, the lower atmosphere will remain sufficiently moist and unstable to generate occasional cloudiness and some scattered showers over the region during next couple of days.
