Synopsis: Periods of rain and/or showers of varying intensities are expected from early morning (06th October 2022 to Saturday 08th October) commencing over Aruba and surroundings as an active tropical wave traverses westward near our area. Regardless of development there is a high chance of locally heavy showers and thunderstorms that can produce intense rainfall during that period in excess of 25 to 45 mm. Gusty winds in excess of 50 to 60 km/h may be experienced especially in the vicinity of heavy showers/thunderstorms. Street to urban flooding are also likely in moderate to heavy showers.
Marine Conditions: Seas can become quite rough to locally rough mainly on the east to northwest coastal sections and choppy at times on the south sides and in sheltered or protected areas.
Hence, a Small Craft Advisory will become in effect for the east to northwest coastal section and also elsewhere for open waters as by 6 AM Thursday. Operators of small vessels are advised not to venture in areas with showers and thunderstorms.
