WEATHER SUMMARY
The Atlantic High Pressure System will continue to generate moderate northeasterly to easterly winds and above normal seas across the Eastern Caribbean region. Low level clouds drifting along the wind flow, will cause some scattered showers over the islands during the forecast period.
A weak surface trough located just east of the southern Windward Islands is expected to cause cloudiness, showers and possibly isolated thunderstorms over the southeastern Caribbean region during the next 24 hours.
