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

Light to moderate north to northeast winds are expected for the next

few days due to high pressure in the western Atlantic and a 

developing area of low pressure to our northeast. A northeasterly 

swell generated by the developing low will enter and spread across 

the Atlantic waters from Tuesday onwards. This will result in 

deteriorating and hazardous seas through the rest of the work-week 

and possibly into the upcoming weekend as a secondary northerly swell

is so far forecast to follow.
