SYNOPSIS:
Although the atmosphere is dry and stable, brisk winds generated by a strong pressure gradient is pushing shallow patches of moisture across the region. As a result, a brief shower is possible at times. Additionally, light concentrations of Saharan dust will lower air quality. Persons with allergies and/or respiratory illnesses should take the necessary precautions.
Deteriorating sea conditions, with waves expected to peak up to 8 feet from later tonight has resulted in a Small Craft Advisory for St. Maarten until further notice. Small craft operators and sea bathers should exercise caution, especially along the northern and eastern shores.
STATE OF THE SEA: Moderate to rough
WAVES/SWELLS: 5 to 8 feet
SPECIAL FEATURE: None.
