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

A surface high pressure over the central Atlantic and a surface 

trough northeast of the region will promote light to moderate 

northeast winds through tonight, turning from the east to southeast 

winds on Thursday as a weak surface trough crosses the region. 

Choppy seas will continue across the Atlantic waters and local 

passages due to a northeasterly swell. Tranquil seas are forecast 

elsewhere through the workweek.
