425 AM AST Sun May 5 2024

.SYNOPSIS FOR PUERTO RICO AND THE U.S. VIRGIN ISLANDS WATERS...
A surface high pressure extending from the western to central
Atlantic will promote light to moderate easterly winds through the
forecast period. A northeasterly swell is expected to spread across
the local waters by Tuesday and gradually increase seas to around 5
to 6 feet through the end of the week. Remnant moisture from the
induced surface trough located to our east will continue to promote
shower and isolated thunderstorms development across the regional
waters during the afternoon and evening for the next several days.
