TROPICAL WEATHER OUTLOOK 

Low level clouds drifting along a moderate to brisk easterly wind flow, will cause some showers over the Lesser Antilles, during the next 24 hours.

 
A tropical wave located about 750 miles or about 1200 kilometres east of the Windward Islands, is producing disorganised showers and thunderstorm activity.  This system has a slight chance of development as it moves westward near 17 mph or 28 km/h, over the next couple of days.

Two other tropical waves located over the central and far eastern Tropical Atlantic, are moving westward near 8 and 15 mph or 13 and 24 km/h, respectively.

The alert level at the La Soufriere volcano in Saint Vincent remains at Orange.

Interests in Saint Lucia and the South-Eastern Caribbean region are advised to

continue monitoring official sources for updates.
