A high pressure system is expected to remain dominant across the area over the next few days producing an increase in wind speeds. During this time, low-level clouds moving with the wind flow are expected to generate periods of scattered showers across the Lesser Antilles, including Dominica.
Moderate to rough seas are anticipated during the next 24 hours, with swells up to 10.0ft along the northern and eastern coastlines. Strong winds gusting to near 50km/h and dangerous sea conditions near 12.0ft are expected by Tuesday into the rest of the week. Residents are advised to exercise the necessary precautions due to strong winds.
A Small Craft Warning and a High Surf Advisory are in effect for above normal seas. Small craft operators and people living near or traversing coastal areas should remain vigilant and exercise extreme caution. Sea bathers are advised to stay out of the water.
