WEATHER (6:00 AM, May 15): Saharan dust haze expected; residents asked to take precautions

Saharan dust seen from Castle Comfort

A high pressure system is expected to produce occasional cloudiness across parts of the Lesser Antilles during the next 24 hours. Reduced moisture levels and the presence of Saharan dust haze are expected to result in limited shower activity across the area..

People with respiratory sensitivities should take all the necessary precautions.

A slight increase in cloudiness and showers can be expected across the area, from late Monday into Tuesday as a tropical wave moves across the southern portion of the Lesser Antilles.

Moderate seas are anticipated during the next 24 hours with waves peaking near 7.0ft. Small craft operators and sea bathers on the east coast should exercise some caution.
