Synopsis

A surface high pressure building from the north-central Atlantic will promote light to moderate east to southeast winds through the end of the week. A weak long-period northeasterly swell will reach the area late tonight, with seas building between 3 to 4 feet. Afternoon thunderstorms developing from the Atlantic and western coastal waters of Puerto Rico may produce locally strong gusts and frequent lightning through the early evening hours each day.

What this buoy measures
