WEATHER SUMMARY
The Atlantic High Pressure System will generate moderate easterly winds and above normal seas around the Eastern Caribbean region during the next 24 hours.
A marginal increase in moisture in the lower levels of the atmosphere over our region, will cause a few scattered showers over the Lesser Antilles during the forecast period.
The La Soufriere volcano in Saint 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.
