Cold Front Brings Rain and Unsettled Weather to Antigua and Barbuda

Meteorological authorities have issued a weather advisory for Antigua and Barbuda as a passing cold front generates unstable atmospheric conditions across the Leeward Islands. The national forecast indicates scattered showers throughout the day, with precipitation accumulations projected to reach between 3 and 10 millimeters (0.12–0.40 inches). Meteorological experts note a marginal probability of thunderstorm development alongside the anticipated rainfall.

The Antigua and Barbuda Meteorological Service confirms the transitory nature of this weather system, predicting its departure from the region within the next 24-hour period. This movement is expected to restore stable meteorological conditions to the islands. While significant weather disruptions aren’t anticipated, government officials recommend residents maintain vigilance during intense precipitation periods and monitor official weather channels for real-time updates.

This meteorological event represents typical seasonal weather variability for the Caribbean region during this transitional period. The forecasted rainfall amounts remain within moderate parameters, though sudden downpours could temporarily affect visibility and road conditions. The meteorological office continues to track the system’s progression and will issue additional bulletins should weather conditions materially change.
