The eroded Atlantic high-pressure ridge will continue to support light to gentle winds. Meanwhile, a drier and more stable atmosphere will limit the chances of showers across the region.
Slight to moderate marine conditions can be expected for the next few days with swells peaking near 6 feet. As a result of long period swells spreading across the Atlantic, a high surf advisory is now in effect for St. Maarten. Small craft operators and sea bathers should exercise caution.

SPECIAL FEATURES: None.
