The Atlantic high pressure system will dominate the weather pattern across Saint Vincent and the Grenadines this afternoon, while a tropical wave inches closer to the island chain tonight.
Model guidance is indicating a dry atmosphere up to Wednesday afternoon. After which, an increase in moisture due to the presence of a tropical wave will result in a few showers across Saint Vincent and the Grenadines. Furthermore, on Thursday, as the night progresses, model data is suggesting that a deeper pool of moisture associated with an easterly wave will be approaching the region and the potential for some scattered showers could be expected across the entire island chain. Further monitoring will be done.
