Strong cold front to impact Jamaica starting Saturday
KINGSTON, Jamaica — The Meteorological Service says a strong cold front forecast to enter the western Caribbean this Saturday will impact weather conditions across Jamaica from Saturday night through early next week.
Consequently, the island is expected to experience significantly cooler temperatures. Additionally, strong, gusty winds are expected across Jamaica, especially across northern parishes and hilly areas.
Residents are also advised to expect generally cloudy conditions with increased periods of showers affecting most parishes.
Fishers and other marine interests are advised to exercise caution as sea conditions will deteriorate due to very strong (near gale force) winds from Saturday night through early next week.
The Meteorological Service says it will continue to monitor this system and update as necessary.
