SURFACE WINDS:

SYNOPSIS:
Moisture associated with a recent tropical wave will cause showers and cloudy periods during this forecast period. Meanwhile, a tight pressure gradient will account for brisk winds.
Large northeasterly to easterly swells are predicted to impact regional waters, resulting in seas peaking at 8 feet. Hence, a Small Craft Advisory is in effect for St. Maarten through the next few days. Small craft operators and sea bathers should exercise caution.

WAVES/SWELLS: 5 to 8 feet
SPECIAL FEATURES: None.
OUTLOOK through Sunday midday: Partly cloudy and breezy with isolated showers possible.
