General Situation: Abundant tropical moisture streaming across the Bahamas interacting with an upper-level disturbance approaching the area from the Gulf of Mexico will continue to promote an unsettled weather pattern across the Islands today. Through Sunday, high pressure centered in the Atlantic will gradually build across the Bahamas to support gentle to moderate winds while a drier airmass moves in across the Archipelago. High pressure will continue to expand westwards and dominate the weather pattern, supporting moderate to occasionally fresh winds and warmer temperatures through the upcoming week.
