WEATHER (6:00 AM, July 2): Partly cloudy, breezy conditions with scattered showers expected today

A relative reduction in moisture levels can be expected today as a high-pressure system becomes the dominant feature. Partly cloudy and breezy conditions with scattered showers can be expected today.

The presence of dust haze is expected to be maintained over the next few days. People with respiratory sensitivities are advised to take the necessary precautions to avoid complications.

Moderate seas can be expected in open water with waves peaking near 8ft today. A gradual reduction in wave heights is expected today. Thereafter, moderate to rough seas are projected from Wednesday. People living near the coast are advised to exercise caution due to onshore breaking wave action. Small craft operators are advised to remain in port. Sea bathers are advised to stay out of the water.
