TODAY
A fine and very warm day across the island with sunny spells and occasional areas of cloud moving through. Temperature 22-24°C but as high as 25-26°C across central, northern and eastern parts, although closer to 20-21°C around windward coasts
Wind southwest 5-10mph but with onshore coastal breezes for a time this afternoon before turning west-southwest 8-15mph
TONIGHT
A dry start to the night with clear spells and broken cloud, although as the night goes on the cloud will gradually thicken from the south as we see an area of showers moving northwards, potentially heavy and locally thundery too, although the heaviest of these may well stay just to the east of our area, but there is some uncertainty. Temperature 16-18°C Wind southwest 2-6mph becoming variable 0-4mph for a time before turning west-southwest again by dawn
Rainfall (huge variations) with some places seeing next to nothing and other places seeing perhaps as much as 15-20mm
TOMORROW
We see the risk of showers at first (perhaps thundery) but these will clear way, giving an afternoon of sunny spells and broken cloud. Feeling warm and rather humid too.
Temperature 22-23°C but closer to 19°C in the south and west
Wind west 9-15mph becoming west-southwest 15-27mph during the afternoon
Rainfall 0-8mm with highly localised variations
