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

A weak surface high pressure across the central Atlantic will result

in moderate trade winds through Friday. Winds will increase during

the weekend as a front moves across the offshore Atlantic waters.

Seas will gradually improve through tomorrow. However, a long period

northerly swell is forecast to invade the Atlantic waters beginning 

late Friday night and continuing into early next week. This will 

result in very hazardous seas through the upcoming weekend across the

Atlantic waters and passages.
