SYNOPSIS FOR PUERTO RICO AND THE U.S. VIRGIN ISLANDS WATERS

A series of high pressure systems across the Atlantic will promote fresh to locally strong east-northeasterly winds, resulting in choppy to rough seas across most regional waters and local Caribbean passages. Therefore, hazardous marine conditions will prevail through at least early next week. As a result, Small Craft Advisories remain in effect through at least Sunday evening, though these may be extended as conditions will probably continue hazardous next workweek as well. Inexperienced mariners, especially those operating smaller vessels, should avoid navigating in hazardous conditions.
