.SYNOPSIS FOR PUERTO RICO AND THE U.S. VIRGIN ISLANDS WATERS...
A surface high pressure north of the islands will spread into the
central and eastern Atlantic, promoting moderate to locally fresh
easterly winds through the weekend and early next week. These winds
will promote choppy marine conditions across the local waters where
small craft should exercise caution. A fading northerly swell
affecting the local islands should continue to impact the Atlantic
waters and local passages through early tomorrow.
