KINGSTON, Jamaica — Showers and thunderstorms are expected across sections of Jamaica over the next few days as a trough continues to influence weather conditions across the island, the Meteorological Service of Jamaica says.

The Met Service said windy conditions are also expected, mainly across southern parishes, from Wednesday through Thursday morning as a low-level jet moves closer to the island.

The forecast for Wednesday is isolated morning showers across eastern parishes, with partly cloudy conditions elsewhere. In the afternoon, mostly cloudy conditions with showers and thunderstorms are expected across western parishes, while windy conditions are forecast for southern parishes and hilly areas elsewhere.

On Thursday, isolated morning showers are expected across sections of eastern parishes, with afternoon showers and thunderstorms across central and western parishes.

Friday is expected to bring cloudy conditions with showers across most western, south-central and eastern parishes in the morning, followed by scattered afternoon showers and thunderstorms across most parishes.

Meanwhile, the trough is expected to persist into the weekend, with a cold front projected to move into the western Caribbean by Saturday.
