High Surf Warning Issued for Antigua and Barbuda and Northern Leewards
The Antigua and Barbuda Meteorological Service has issued a High Surf Warning for several islands in the northern Leeward chain as hazardous marine conditions are expected to develop on Thursday.
Forecaster Letitia Humphreys said the warning affects Antigua and Barbuda, Anguilla, the British Virgin Islands, Montserrat, and St. Kitts and Nevis.
Seas are forecast to build to over 10 feet (3 meters), with dangerous rip currents, coastal flooding, and beach erosion likely. Conditions are expected to peak from Thursday afternoon through early Friday, depending on location.
Residents and visitors are urged to avoid swimming on exposed northern and eastern coasts, stay clear of rocks and jetties, and use only sheltered beaches with lifeguards.
