The Local Weather Forecast for The British Virgin Islands
Synopsis: The presence of a prominent frontal boundary just to the north of the area will continue to provide unsettled weather conditions, thus maintaining a high chance for shower activity over and around the islands during the next 24 hours. In addition, as this frontal boundary gradually drifts southwards, it will significantly increase waves and swells along coastal areas and produce hazardous seas during the next few days, for which marine warnings and advisories will become necessary. Possible rainfall accumulations of 12.5 to 19mm or 0.5 to 0.75 of an inch are possible during the next 24 hours. Weather tonight: Partly cloudy to cloudy skies with a 70 percent or
high chance of showers mixed with light rain. Weather tomorrow: Partly cloudy to cloudy skies with a 70 percent or high chance of showers mixed with light rain. Winds: Northeast at 26 to 41 km/h or 14 to 22 knots with higher gusts during showers, over open waters and also in elevated areas.. Seas: Beginning late tonight into tomorrow, seas ranging between 2.4 to 3.7 metres or 8 to 12 feet, with northerly swells of 2.4 metres or 8 feet. Therefore a warning for small craft operators and a high surf advisory for beachgoers goes into effect starting tonight.. Sunrise tomorrow: 6:53 am. Sunset tomorrow: 6:04 pm. | |||||||||
