Trough system cause of showers

BARBADIANS can expect more cloudy weather today with some rain, and this should continue into tomorrow as well. But based on what meteorologists are seeing now, things should improve by Sunday.
Meteorologist-on-duty, David Best said yesterday’s showers were caused by a trough system that was lingering to the east of the island chain for the last few days. It drifted further to the west resulting in cloudy skies and scattered thunderstorm activity here and over neighbouring islands like St Vincent and St Lucia.
Best said they were expecting the same system to stick around until today.
Therefore residents can expect partly cloudy to cloudy weather, but it will be breezy with a few scattered showers.
He said this situation should gradually improve by Sunday, based on the trends they were seeing. (SP)
