Issued:
Friday August 21, 2026, 18:00 l.t. (22:00 UTC).

Weather:
Mostly cloudy conditions with intermittent showers and isolated thunderstorms possible. Forecast high will be 31ºC and the low will be 26ºC. Sunrise will occur at 06:25 and sunset at 18:53.

Synopsis:
An upper level tropical disturbance continues to affect the region. The disturbance causes mainly high-level clouds over our region. This is combination with a broad zone of moisture associated with the ITCZ (Intertropical Convergence Zone) continues to influence the region, maintaining high humidity and atmospheric instability. These conditions are favorable for significant cloud development with showers occurring at times and the potential for isolated thunderstorms either around or over our island. Overnight, additional cloud patches are expected to move in, leading to more frequent showers by tomorrow, again accompanied by a risk of thunderstorms. Due to the presence of the ITCZ, surface winds will weaken from tomorrow somewhat to nominal levels.

Sea conditions:
Moderate with wave heights between 1 and 2 meters (3 and 6 feet). The highest waves are expected over the northern and western open sea area.

Significant tropical weather systems:
None.
