BAHAMAS PUBLIC FORECAST

BAHAMAS PUBLIC FORECAST FOR TONIGHT AND THE NEXT SIX (6) DAYS, ISSUED
BY THE BAHAMAS DEPARTMENT OF METEOROLOGY AT 6:00 P.M. EDT, Tuesday,
July 7, 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) is in effect for
waters south of Inagua. Near gale wind gusts are possible across the
watch area tonight through Wednesday. For additional marine
information, please view our Marine Forecast on our website,
met.gov.bs.

A Heat Advisory remains in effect for the Northern Bahamas. Due to
high temperatures in the mid 90’s and UV heat indices in the triple
digits (very high to extreme range) Residents and visitors are
advised to remain hydrated, wear protective clothing and sunscreen
and avoid prolonged sun exposure during peak sunshine hours of 11am
to 4pm.

A Dust Advisory is NOW in effect for the Northwest, Central and
Southeast Bahamas, as well as the Turks & Caicos Islands. Residents,
especially those with respiratory conditions, should take the
necessary precautions to safeguard their health.

GENERAL SITUATION: Broad ridging and Saharan dust will keep
conditions mostly stable through Wednesday, limiting shower chances
across most of the island chain. However by Wednesday evening through
overnight hours, shower and isolated thunderstorm chances are
expected to increase across the Southeast Bahamas, as a tropical wave
moves near the area. Moderate to fresh winds will continue across
most areas, with fresh to strong breezes and near-gale gusts possible
across the Southeastern islands.
Outlook: On Thursday, another tropical wave will approach the area,
resulting in some unsettled weather and increasing the chances for
severe weather conditions across The Bahamas into Friday. In the wake
of this feature, high pressure is expected to build across the
islands again by weekend.

SPECIAL WEATHER NOTES:
Rip Currents: Swimmers and beachgoers in the Southeast Bahamas should
avoid entering waters, due to the high risk of rip currents and rough
surf. Meanwhile a moderate risk is in effect for waters in the
Central Bahamas. Beachgoers are urged to exercise caution when
entering the water.
