Kwajalein Atoll Forecast
Sunday, October 01, 2023
A slowly developing tropical circulation is passing south and southwest of the atoll and generating waves of isolated showers and stray thunderstorms over and upstream of Kwajalein Atoll. The Intertropical Convergence Zone (ITCZ) lies south of the region and will continue to drive waves of active weather across the southern RMI over the next several days. Tonight’s winds will tend to be easterly to southeasterly in the upper single digits, but gusts mixing down with showers may reach the mid-20s. Skies will generally remain partly to mostly cloudy today and tonight due to debris clouds from the ITCZ. After this passing wave and circulation south moves west, the pressure gradient will loosen and a period of drier and calmer conditions can be expected on Monday. Another broad wave will pass through the area Tuesday morning into Wednesday, bringing shower activity and increased thunderstorm chances once again. Shower coverage will be 25% today and 15% tonight with waves of showers and thunderstorms. Combined seas on the open ocean will be 2-4 ft. JDM
