SYNOPSIS FOR PUERTO RICO AND THE U.S. VIRGIN ISLANDS WATERS
A surface high pressure over the western Atlantic will promote moderate to fresh northeasterly winds through this evening, gradually veering to the east and weakening during the day. A weak frontal boundary will linger over the region during the next few days, promoting cloudiness and light to moderate showers. A subsiding, long period north-northwest swell will continue to bring hazardous seas across the Atlantic waters and passages through at least early Thursday. Small Craft Advisories are in effect for most local waters exposed to the NW swell.
