Long term
TUESDAY THROUGH SATURDAY...Models generally agree on a west southwestward track for Invest 95P/TD02F as it approaches the vicinity of Swains island later in the week. Although current environmental conditions favor tropical development, increasing vertical wind shear closer to the main island chain may inhibit further intensification. Regardless of development, increasing moisture associated with the disturbance will likely maintain numerous showers across the territory on Tuesday through Saturday. Meanwhile, a tight pressure gradient between the disturbance to the north and the high pressure to the south will maintain strong trades throughout the forecast period.
Marine
Seas of 7 to 9 feet will persist tonight through Sunday under breezy trades. As trades strengthen on Sunday night, seas will build 9 to 12 feet and remain hazardous through Saturday. Strong trades and elevated seas will continue to pose hazardous conditions for small craft throughout much of the upcoming week. Additional increases in winds and seas remain possible depending on the track and intensity of the system.
