A mid to upper level ridge will build over the area late Thursday and prevail across the region through early next week with fair weather and an occasional shower. Short term Tonight through Friday... mostly sunny skies prevailed over the u.S. Virgin islands and puerto rico today with easterly winds ranging from 5 to 15 mph. Some showers were observed over the atlantic waters but other than those isolated showers today has been tranquil. A weakening surface trough near the lesser antilles has pulled low level moisture into the caribbean and north atlantic waters today with the bulk of the moisture expected to reach the u.S. Virgin islands and puerto rico tonight and Thursday morning. As a result an increase in showers with the possibility for isolated thunderstorms is expected on Thursday. Early Friday a strengthening upper and mid level ridge will build across the area and prevail through the weekend with brisk easterly winds of 15 to 20 mph. Drier air and strong trade winds will limit shower development across the area on Friday through the weekend. Long term A mid to upper level ridge will hold across the forecast area through the weekend. This feature is expected to quickly erode early the next workweek as a broad upper level trough establishes across the western atlantic and into the eastern caribbean. The aforementioned trough will promote moisture advection across the eastern caribbean Wednesday onwards. If the long term forecast holds, expect seasonably conditions |

Almost all of these also make simplifying assumptions so they are not totally accurate even if there are no errors. Please verify all results. 5) Weather information is from numerious of sources and is presented automatically. It is not checked for accuracy either by anyone at L-36.com or by the source which is typically the US Government. See the NOAA web site for their disclaimer. Finally, tide and current data on this site is from 2007 and 2008 data bases, which may contain even older data. Changes in harbors due to building or dredging change tides and currents and for that reason many of the locations presented are no longer supported by newer data bases. For example, there is very little tidal current data in newer data bases so current data is likely wrong to some extent. This data is NOT FOR NAVIGATION. See the XTide disclaimer for details. In addition, tide and current are influenced by storms, river flow, and other factors beyond the ability of any predictive program. |
