An increase in moisture and mid- to upper-level instability due to a trough system is expected to be maintained across the Lesser Antilles tonight. Expect cloudy to overcast skies with scattered showers and possible isolated thunderstorms. Individuals in areas at risk of flooding, landslides and falling rocks should remain alert and exercise caution. A gradual drying of the atmosphere can be expected during tomorrow together with a slight increase in Saharan dust concentration. People with respiratory sensitivities are advised to be on alert.<\/p>\n
Sea conditions are expected to remain slight to moderate over the next 24 hours, with wave heights up to 3ft along the west coast and up to 8ft on the east coast. A further increase to near 10ft is expected on Thursday. A Small Craft Advisory is now in effect for above normal swells on the east with an upgrade to a warning from Thursday morning. All sea users, especially along the eastern coasts, are advised to monitor updates and to exercise extreme caution.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"An increase in moisture and mid- to upper-level instability due to a trough system is expected to be maintained across the Lesser Antilles tonight.
