FORECAST FOR THE LESSER ANTILLES
Fair to partly cloudy skies with a few brief light showers today. Partly
cloudy to cloudy skies with some scattered showers, mainly over the northern part of our region from late tonight.
WEATHER SUMMARY
The Atlantic High-Pressure System will generate light to moderate easterly winds around the Eastern Caribbean region, during the next 24 hours.
A relatively dry and stable atmosphere will limit shower activity across the Lesser Antilles today. However, an increase in moisture and instability over the northern half of the region, will increase the chances of cloudiness and showers over those islands by late tonight into tomorrow.
