SYNOPSIS:
Available moisture associated with patches of low-level clouds moving across the local region will account for a high probability of showers. Meanwhile slightly breezy conditions may provide slight relief to the persistent heat. Nevertheless, stay hydrated.
Slight to moderate seas, peaking up to 7 feet are expected through the next couple of days. Small craft operators and swimmers should exercise caution.
STATE OF THE SEA: Slight to moderate
WAVES/SWELLS: 4 to 7 feet
SPECIAL FEATURE:
- As of 11am, Tropical Storm Beryl was located about 1140 miles east-southeast of St. Maarten. It is forecast to move generally westward and cross the southern Caribbean late Sunday into Monday. Further strengthening is expected and Beryl could become a hurricane tonight or Sunday. However, it is predicted to pass about 310 miles south-southwest of St. Maarten late Monday into Tuesday and does not pose a direct threat.
- The tropical wave, located in the eastern Atlantic has a low (20%) to medium (60%) chance of formation within the next 2-7 days. Slow development of this system is possible by mid-week, while it also moves generally westward.
The Meteorological Department St. Maarten will continue to monitor the progress of these systems and update the public accordingly.
OUTLOOK through Monday midday: Partly cloudy to cloudy and breezy with isolated showers.
