As a result, winds will become light to moderate and seas will gradually subside. Easterly trade winds are expected to strengthen again by Tuesday into Wednesday as another surface high builds across the western Atlantic, resulting in increasingly choppy marine conditions. A tropical wave will move over the Caribbean Sea late Wednesday into Thursday, increasing the potential for showers and thunderstorms. $$ AMZ711-040815- Atlantic Waters of Puerto Rico and USVI from 10 NM to 19.5N- 338 PM AST Sat Oct 3 2026 .TONIGHT...East winds 10 to 15 knots with gusts up to 25 knots.
