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

A surface high pressure over the central Atlantic continues to 

generate an east-southeast wind flow through this afternoon, but 

winds will shift to the east later this afternoon and evening. Seas 

below 5 feet are expected to prevail through Saturday. However, 

marine conditions are expected to deteriorate by Sunday or Monday as 

a northerly swell invades the local waters.
