Good morning, SVG! We’re starting this Thursday under cloudy, breezy and slightly hazy skies as a tropical wave moves across the islands. So yes, keep that umbrella close today — not because it’s an all-day rain event, but because a few scattered showers and even an isolated thunderstorm could pop up as the day goes along.
At 6:00 a.m., the Meteorological Office at Argyle International Airport reported a temperature of 27.2°C, with northeast winds blowing at around 24 km/h. Humidity is on the higher side at 90%, so it may feel a little muggy in spots, especially when the breeze eases.
Forecasters say a tropical wave is crossing the islands, bringing partly cloudy and breezy conditions at times, along with a few scattered showers, isolated thunderstorms and moderate haze.
There are currently no weather advisories or warnings in effect for St. Vincent and the Grenadines.
