A small craft Warning and a High Surf Advisory are now in effect for St. Vincent and the Grenadines.
The local Meteorological Services said that weak unstable conditions associated with a deep-layered low pressure system in the northern Atlantic was propagating large swells southwards to the eastern Caribbean as of yesterday March 4, 2018.
As a consequence, a High-Surf Advisory and Small Craft Warning are now in effect for St. Vincent and the Grenadines until 6:00pm on Wednesday March 7, 2018.
The small craft warning means that seas up to 10 feet are expected to affect our maritime area.
Large waves and dangerous rip-currents can be expected mainly along the western, northern, and north-east coasts of St. Vincent and the Grenadines which will create unsafe conditions for small craft operators.
Sea bathers and other users of the sea are advised to stay out of the water during this period.
