Puerto Rico and the U.S. Virgin Islands Waters

439 AM AST Sun May 12 2024

.SYNOPSIS FOR PUERTO RICO AND THE U.S. VIRGIN ISLANDS WATERS...
Seas will be favorable for small craft through at least Thursday. A
surface high pressure across the central Atlantic and a low in the
western Atlantic will allow southeasterly winds to prevail today. As
another high moves into the western Atlantic winds will be light to
moderate easterlies through the rest of the period. A weak northerly
swell will continue to fade across the Atlantic waters and passages.
Afternoon convective activity could move from the islands towards
nearby waters.
