SEA CONDITIONS :

Rough seas from the northeast with swells reaching 3.0 to 3.5 meters in open waters. These waves will likely have periods of between 9 and 10 seconds. Moderate to fresh breeze from northeast to the east.

Severe Weather Advisory

Due to the strengthening of the Atlantic High-Pressure system, strong surface winds can result in damage to vulnerable buildings, structures, and homes. Residents are advised to take all precautionary measures during this time to safeguard life and property.

Marine Advisory:

The meandering and building of the Atlantic high-pressure system is generating strong surface to low-level winds across the region. As a result, rough seas with swell heights ranging from 3.0 m to 3.5 m in open waters are currently being experienced. The forecast model indicates these conditions to persist for the next 5 days. These conditions may lead to hazardous sea conditions. Therefore, coastal residents, fisherfolks, and other marine users are advised to exercise extreme caution during this time.
