WEATHER SUMMARY

The Atlantic High Pressure System will continue to generate light to moderate

Easterly winds across the Eastern Caribbean region for the next few days.

Low level shallow clouds drifting along this wind flow, will cause a few

showers over the Eastern Caribbean islands during the next 24 hours.

The La Soufriere volcano in St. Vincent remains active, so 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.
