A weak shear line is expected to affect the northern half of the Lesser Antilles as it drifts southward over the islands during the forecast period.
Patches of low level clouds moving along the wind flow, will cause a few cloudy periods with widely scattered showers over the southern half of the Lesser Antilles, during the next 24 hours.
