Description
The Small Craft Advisory for Barbados has been UPGRADED to a Small Craft Warning.
This alert message is valid from 6pm on Wednesday 28th October, 2020.
The central Atlantic high pressure system is expected to generate moderate to brisk surface winds of 20 to 25 knots (37 to 47 km/h) over the marine area in the coming days. This will result in a deterioration in sea conditions primarily on the northern, eastern and southern coastal and marine area, thus triggering a Small-Craft Warning and High Surf Advisory.
A Small-Craft warning is issued when sustained winds of 25 to 33 knots and/or sea swells greater than 3 metres (greater than 10 feet) and/or reduced visibility (less than 5 km) are affecting or forecast to affect the marine area within the next 36 hours.
A High Surf Advisory is issued when breaking wave action poses or is forecast to pose a threat to life and property within the surf zone during the next 36 hours.
