Strong winds ahead of a tropical wave approaching Barbados are causing sea conditions to deteriorate, with high winds, excess rainfall and thunderstorms expected to affect the island from Friday night into Saturday.
As such, the Barbados Meteorological Services (BMS) said a Small Craft and High Surf Warning remains in effect as the tropical wave moves closer to the island. There are currently no tropical storm watches or warnings in effect.
At 5 a.m., the system, according to the BMS, was located about 535 miles (860 kilometres) East of Barbados.
