Here’s The 5-Day Weather Outlook For T&T — From Wednesday Through Sunday

According to the Trinidad and Tobago Meteorological Service (TTMS), the North Atlantic sub-tropical high-pressure cell is expected to be the dominant influence across the tropical North Atlantic during this outlook period. Mostly high pressure is expected to remain across the Lesser Antilles. With a well-formed and strong high pressure cell setting up a relatively straight and unhindered fetch, we can expect breezy to windy conditions. Varying low-level convergence and patches of moisture advection are likely to be the main features for any precipitation production during the outlook period. A moderate concentration of Saharan dust is likely to remain during this outlook period.

The seas in the open waters to the near-East and Northeast of Trinidad and Tobago are presently near 2.5m. For this outlook period, the seas in the open waters are likely to be between 2.5m and 3m.

Marine interests are advised to continue to exercise caution.

The near-surface to the mid-level wind is expected to be generally moderate to strong at times for this outlook period. Breezy to windy conditions are likely to develop and at times can become gusty, especially over elevated terrain or in the vicinity of any shower that might occur.

The Met Office notes that the Saharan dust concentration is presently mostly mild, occasionally moderate. From today (Tuesday 25th March, 2025), the concentration is expected to rise to generally moderate for the remainder of this outlook period.

Persons sensitive to the changes in the dust concentration are advised to take the necessary precautions.

For this outlook period, mostly fair, hazy and at times breezy to windy conditions are expected. Although noticeable wind ventilation is likely, the maximum daytime temperatures are forecast to hover around 33°C and can be a bit higher in built-up areas during the afternoons. Direct exposure to the incoming solar radiation (insolation) will also be a factor in the “feels like” temperature (heat index).

Patches of moisture advection, together with varying surface convergence interacting with the local topographies are likely to produce a few brief (light or moderate) showers over varying areas. Even with the likelihood of a few brief showers, the probability for brush or bush fires remains elevated.

Wednesday (26th March, 2025) 

• For Trinidad and Tobago, generally fair, hazy, and breezy to sometimes windy conditions are likely to be interrupted at times by a brief (light or moderate) shower during the early morning over Tobago and Eastern areas of Trinidad, and during the late morning to early afternoon near hilly areas. The remainder of the Lesser Antilles, with varying low-level convergence and patches of moisture advection, are likely to have a few brief (light or moderate) showers, mainly near hilly areas.

Thursday (27th March, 2025)

• For Trinidad and Tobago, generally fair, hazy, and breezy to sometimes windy conditions are expected. A few brief pre-dawn showers are likely, mainly over Tobago and Eastern Trinidad, and brief showers during the late morning to early afternoon near hilly areas. The remainder of the Lesser Antilles will experience generally fair and breezy to windy conditions, which are likely to be interrupted at times by varying low-level convergence and patches of moisture advection, producing a few brief (light or moderate) showers, mainly near hilly areas.

Friday (28th March, 2025)

• For Trinidad and Tobago, mostly fair, sunny, hazy and breezy to windy conditions are expected, with brief showers favouring Tobago and Northern hilly areas of Trinidad. The remainder of the Lesser Antilles will be mostly fair and sunny with brief showers in a few areas.

Saturday (29th March, 2025)

• For Trinidad and Tobago, a few brief pre-dawn showers are expected mainly over Eastern and Southern coastal and near-offshore areas of Trinidad. Daytime, evening and night will be fair, sunny, hazy and breezy. The remainder of the Lesser Antilles will be mostly fair and sunny with brief showers in a few areas and the chance for a moderate shower near hilly areas of the Southern Leeward Islands.

Sunday (30th March, 2025)

• For Trinidad and Tobago, mostly fair, sunny, hazy and breezy conditions are expected, with the chance for a brief (light or moderate) shower during the late morning to early afternoon. The remainder of the Lesser Antilles will be generally fair, with patches of moisture advection producing a few showers, mainly near hilly areas.

The TTMS said it continues to analyze and monitor all developments within the Area of Interest. 

Please continue to pay attention to the latest forecasts, alerts, and information issued by the TTMS.
