BAHAMAS PUBLIC FORECAST



BAHAMAS PUBLIC FORECAST FOR TONIGHT, TOMORROW AND THE NEXT SIX (6)

DAYS, ISSUED BY THE BAHAMAS DEPARTMENT OF METEOROLOGY AT 6:00 P.M.

EDT, Sunday, November 1, 2026. THE NEXT SCHEDULED FORECAST WILL BE

ISSUED AT 6:00 A.M. EDT TOMORROW.



WARNING IN EFFECT: A Near Gale Warning (28 – 33 knots) remains in

effect for the Northern and Northwest Bahamas. Occasional gusts to

near-gale force are possible across the aforementioned areas.

Boaters, especially small craft operators are advised to remain in

port and swimmers are strongly advised to refrain from entering the

water.



GENERAL SITUATION: A mid-level troughing is enhancing a surface

trough that is associated with a decaying frontal boundary across the

Northwest and Central Bahamas, while low level troughing is over the

Southeastern Islands. Scattered showers, rain and isolated

thunderstorms are occurring across the chain of islands through

tonight and tomorrow in the Northern and Central parts of the country

while the southeast will see an improvement in conditions. A strong

pressure gradient between an expansive high-pressure system over the

northeastern United States and low pressure to the distant south will

maintain fresh to strong breezes across the Northern and Northwest

Bahamas, where seas will remain moderate to rough. Elsewhere, mainly

moderate to locally fresh breezes and slight to moderate seas are

expected.



OUTLOOK: The surface trough is expected to gradually dissipate on

Monday; however, high pressure to the north will maintain breezy

conditions across the northern half of the country. Meanwhile, an

upper-level trough, combined with increasing moisture and atmospheric

instability moving in from the Gulf, will enhance shower and

thunderstorm activity across the Northern and Northwest Bahamas

before gradually spreading across the remainder of the islands

through Tuesday. Winds are expected to gradually subside across all

areas by late Tuesday, although elevated swells will persist across

the Northern Bahamas through the middle of the week.



SPECIAL WEATHER NOTES:

RIP CURRENTS: There is a high risk of dangerous, life-threatening rip

currents along all northern, eastern and Atlantic coastlines of the

Northern, Northwest and Central Bahamas. Beachgoers are urged to stay

out of the water in these areas. There is a moderate risk of rip

currents in the Southeast Bahamas. Beachgoers are urged to exercise

extreme caution.



FLOODING: There is a slight to moderate risk of flooding in low-lying

and flood-prone areas of the Northern and Northwest Bahamas today

through Monday as periods of heavy showers and prolonged rainfall

continue. Residents are asked to take the necessary precautions.



COASTAL AND TIDAL FLOODING: High tides near the end of the king-tide

period, combined with moderate to large swells, bring a slight to

moderate risk of coastal and tidal flooding along shorelines and

marshland areas. Use caution on low-lying coastal roads near high

tide.



SEVERE THUNDERSTORM RISK: There is a slight risk of a few isolated

strong to severe thunderstorms over portions of the country this

tonight and tomorrow. These storms have the potential to produce

frequent lightning, gusty winds, heavy downpours and waterspouts.

Therefore, the public is urged to remain updated on all severe

weather warnings issued by the Bahamas Department of Meteorology
