A broad surface high pressure over the north-central Atlantic will
continue to promote moderate to locally fresh easterly winds across
the regional waters during the next few days, keeping choppy to
occasionally rough seas. Hazardous marine conditions are forecast due
to a north-northwesterly swells spreading across the local Atlantic
waters and passages starting this evening. As a result, Small Craft
