WEATHER SUMMARY
The Atlantic High Pressure System will continue to generate moderate easterly winds and generally dry and stable conditions across our region during the forecast period.
The La Soufriere volcano in St. Vincent remains active, hence additional eruptions and ash plumes are possible at any time. Interests in Saint Lucia and the south Eastern Caribbean region are advised to continue monitoring official information from reliable media outlets for updates.
