Puerto Rico and the U.S. Virgin Islands Waters

424 PM AST Wed Jul 30 2025

.SYNOPSIS FOR PUERTO RICO AND THE U.S. VIRGIN ISLANDS WATERS...

A surface high pressure over the central Atlantic, in combination
with an induced surface trough, will continue to promote gentle to
moderate east-southeasterly winds. Tonight, portions of the
Caribbean waters may experience moderate to locally fresh winds,
leading to slightly choppy marine conditions. By Friday, an
approaching tropical wave and its leading edge will increase winds
across the local waters, enhancing the potential for thunderstorms
and resulting in localized hazardous marine conditions.
