A strong Tropical Wave currently across the eastern Caribbean Sea is producing
a large, disorganised area of showers and thunderstorms. This system, which is
expected to move across Jamaica on Wednesday, has a medium chance of Tropical
Cyclone development over the next few days.
The forecast is for periods of showers and thunderstorms, which may be heavy at
times, to affect sections of most parishes, especially eastern and south-central
parishes, beginning early Wednesday through to Thursday afternoon. Strong gusty
winds are also expected across Jamaica during this time, especially across
southern parishes.
Fishers and other marine interests should exercise caution as sea conditions will
deteriorate in the vicinity of showers, thunderstorms, and strong gusty winds.
The Meteorological Service will continue to monitor this system.
