NWS Marine Forecast


   AMZ700-122030-  405 AM AST Mon Jan 12 2026    .SYNOPSIS FOR PUERTO RICO AND THE U.S. VIRGIN ISLANDS WATERS...    A surface high pressure moving eastward across the central Atlantic,  combined with a weak surface trough northeast of the region, will  maintain gentle to moderate east to northeast winds through mid-  week, then shifting from the east to southeast by Thursday and  Friday. This pattern will support passing trade-wind showers, mainly  across the Atlantic waters, with occasional showers also moving  through the Caribbean passages. By the end of the week into the  weekend, strengthening northeasterly winds and the arrival of a  long-period northerly swell will likely result in choppy and  potentially hazardous marine conditions. Mariners are advised to  continue monitoring the forecast.    $$
