WEATHER SUMMARY
The Atlantic High-Pressure System will continue to generate moderate to brisk easterly winds and above normal seas across the Eastern Caribbean, during the next few days.
Moisture and unstable conditions associated with a tropical wave will continue to cause cloudiness, showers and isolated thunderstorms mostly over the southern portion of the region tonight.
Another tropical wave located over the western tropical Atlantic is moving westward near 17 mph 28 km/h. This wave is expected to affect the southern half of the Lesser Antilles late Friday into Saturday morning.
A plume of Saharan dust haze is expected to cause a reduction in visibility and air quality over the region from Saturday following the passage of the tropical wave.
