Issued:
Thursday August 14, 2025, 11:00 l.t. (15:00 UTC).

Weather:
Light to partly cloudy with slight haze from the Saharan dust. An isolated shower possible, but overall dry and fair conditions expected. Forecast high will be 33ºC, and the low will be 27ºC. Sunrise will occur at 06:24 and sunset at 18:56.

Synopsis:
A weak tropical wave located east of the ABC Islands is currently influencing the regional weather pattern. Despite the presence of dry air, occasional passing showers may occur during the day, although no significant precipitation is expected. Low concentrations of Saharan dust remain present in the atmosphere, resulting in hazy skies, slightly reduced visibility, and a mildly degraded air quality. Conditions are expected to improve overnight, with predominantly fair weather prevailing into tomorrow. Isolated daytime showers may still develop under hazy conditions, but overall, dry and stable weather is expected.

Sea conditions:
Slight to moderate with wave heights between 0.5 and 1.5 meter (2 and 5 feet).

Significant tropical weather systems:
Tropical Storm Erin, currently situated east of the northern Leeward Islands, is moving west-northwest and is forecast to intensify into a hurricane by Friday. Environmental conditions suggest further strengthening into a major hurricane by Sunday. According to current projections, Erin poses no threat to Curaçao.
