More showers forecast for tonight, tomorrow

The Meteorological Office is forecasting rain across Jamaica for tonight night into Friday morning.

The weather is being influenced by a strong Tropical Wave, currently across Hispaniola, which is expected to move across Jamaica.

The Met Office says as the wave moves across the island, showers and thunderstorms, which may be heavy at times, are likely to affect most parishes but particularly those in the east.

However, it says weather conditions should improve by Friday afternoon.

Fishers and other marine interests are being warned to exercise caution as strong, gusty winds are expected in the vicinity of the showers and thunderstorms.
