A low pressure system located over the central Atlantic, will cause light to moderate northeasterly winds and locally rough seas across the Eastern Caribbean region, during the next couple of days.
A weak shearline is expected to cause occasional cloudiness with showers during the forecast period, as it drifts slowly southward over the island chain.
