A system of high pressure will remain across the local area for the beginning of the week, therefore limiting shower activity throughout the SSS (and surrounding) Islands. Conditions will also be HOT with a slight (warm) breeze; while sea conditions remain moderate. This fair weather is expected to continue at least through Wednesday, making it favorable for outdoor & beach activities.

Seas: are moderate with wave heights between 3 to 5 feet, with the highest wave-action along the East-facing shores.
