The Barbados Meteorological Services is closely monitoring the progress of a Tropical Wave located in the eastern Atlantic along 29/30W, about 3200km or 2000 miles to the east of Barbados.
The tropical wave is currently disorganized and is moving westwards at around 17mph or 28km/h. There are currently no watches or warnings in effect for the island.
Some slow development is possible over the next few days as the wave tracks westwards across the Atlantic. The wave is expected to track generally westward at 15 to 20 mph over the next few days. On the current forecast track, the wave is expected to affect the island Sunday night into early Monday morning next week. As a reminder, the public is advised that this can change.
