.SYNOPSIS FOR PUERTO RICO AND THE U.S. VIRGIN ISLANDS WATERS...

As a tropical wave continues to move away and cross into the east 

central Caribbean today, winds will diminish and seas will continue 

to gradually improve. A surface trough will cross the regional waters

Thursday into Friday followed by a vigorous tropical wave forecast 

to cross the regional waters by the upcoming weekend. The latter 

tropical wave, is being closely monitored by the National Hurricane 

Center as it has potential for Tropical Cyclone development during 

the next two days. Interests in the local region should monitor the 

evolution of this system.
