A trough system is expected to affect the island over the next 24 to 48 hours, bringing increased moisture and instability. As a result, cloudy skies with periods of showers are expected, with some showers becoming moderate to heavy at times. Breezy conditions will also persist throughout the week. Persons living in areas susceptible to flooding, landslides, and falling rocks should take the necessary precautions.<\/p>\n
