Weather Outlook for Dominica and the Lesser Antilles
Valid from: 6:00 AM on Monday, November 29, 2021
A high-pressure system is now dominant across the area. This is expected to result in a relatively dry atmosphere with occasional gusty winds during the next 24 hours. However, low-level clouds moving westward could result in occasional cloudiness and a few isolated showers during the morning.
A trough system is projected to affect the southern portion of the island chain by tomorrow.
Moderate seas are anticipated during the next 24 hours with waves peaking to 7.0ft. Small craft operators and sea-bathers should exercise caution for northerly swells along the western and northern through eastern coastline until Tuesday.
Please note that a greater degree of cloudiness, more frequent rainfall, and higher rainfall amounts are normally experienced across the east coast and interior of Dominica.
