A relative drying out of the atmosphere can be expected during tomorrow as the day progresses. Thereafter, from Wednesday afternoon to overnight, a tropical wave is expected to generate some scattered showers across the island, with a chance of isolated thunderstorms.

Slight dust haze is projected by tomorrow.
