Weather Outlook for Dominica and the Lesser Antilles
Valid from: 6:00 PM on Thursday, June 17, 2021
Lingering moisture following the passage of a westward moving tropical wave is expected to continue to generate cloudiness with a few showers across the Lesser Antilles, including Dominica, during the next 12 to 24 hours. Breezy conditions will be maintained across the area.
People in areas prone to landslides and falling rocks are advised to exercise caution.
Dust haze is expected to persist throughout the week resulting in a reduction in visibility and air quality. People with respiratory sensitivities are advised to take the necessary precautions to avoid complications.
Meanwhile, another tropical wave currently over the Central Tropical Atlantic is projected to affect the island chain by Saturday into Sunday.
Moderate to rough seas are anticipated during tonight with waves peaking near 10.0ft along the east coast. A Small Craft Warning remains in effect for above normal seas on the east coast. Small craft operators and sea bathers are advised to exercise caution. A slight reduction in wave height can be expected during tomorrow.
