WEATHER (6:00 AM, March 02): Cloudiness, passing showers across the region this morning

A strong high-pressure system will continue to produce gusty winds across the area during the next 24 hours. Moisture within the wind flow will lead to periods of cloudiness, along with brisk, passing showers across the island mainly during the morning.

Saharan dust levels are expected to be on the increase today. People with respiratory sensitivities should take the necessary precautions. Mariners are also advised to carry proper navigational equipment when venturing out to sea.

Sea conditions are expected to remain moderate to rough over the next 24 hours. Waves are forecast to reach up to 5 feet along the west coast and near 10 feet along the east coast. A Small Craft Advisory remains in effect, particularly for the eastern coast. Small-craft operators, sea bathers, and people living near to or traveling along coastal areas should remain on alert and should exercise caution.
