.Synopsis for Puerto Rico and the U.S. Virgin Islands Waters...

A surface high pressure system over the eastern to central Atlantic,
interacting with surface trough north of the region, will promote
east-southeast light to moderate winds. A subsiding northerly swell
will continue to spread across the Atlantic waters, maintaining seas
from 5 to 6 feet across exposed areas, small craft should exercise
caution. Showers and thunderstorms associated to the trough will
continue across the local waters, creating locally hazardous marine
conditions through the weekend. Model guidance suggests another
long- period northerly swell that may arrive and spread across
local waters and passages by next week, resulting in choppy to
rough seas and becoming hazardous for small craft.
