FPBA31 MYNN 111012 111000 MYNNYM BAHAMAS PUBLIC FORECAST FORECASTS FOR THE BAHAMAS FOR TODAY, TONIGHT AND THE NEXT SIX (6) DAYS, ISSUED BY THE BAHAMAS DEPARTMENT OF METEOROLOGY AT 6:00 A.M. EDT, Friday, July 11, 2025. THE NEXT SCHEDULED FORECAST WILL BE ISSUED AT 12:00 P.M. EDT. WARNING IN EFFECT: There are currently no public warnings in effect at this time. GENERAL SITUATION: High pressure centered in the Atlantic will expand across the Bahamas supporting moderate to fresh east to southeasterly breezes around the islands while a thin layer of Saharan Dust draped over the area helps to limit shower and thunderstorm chances today and into the weekend. Meanwhile to northern extend of a tropical wave will pass near the Southern Bahamas helping to trigger a few showers across the Southeastern islands. Outlook: A typical summertime weather pattern will continue across the Bahamas into the weekend as high pressure becomes the dominant weather feature. Another mid to upper level low/disturbance is expected to move across the islands by early next week helping to elevate our shower and thunderstorm chances once again. SPECIAL WEATHER NOTES: The public is advised to remain hydrated, wear loose-fitted clothing and sunscreen while outdoors, and take frequent breaks during peak sunshine hours, as UV indices are expected in the high to very high range and heat indices will reach the mid- to upper 90’s to the lower triple digits. There is also a moderate to high risk of rip currents along eastern and southern shorelines of the Northwest, Central and Southeast Bahamas therefore beachgoers are urged to remain onshore in the Southeast Bahamas, and should exercise extreme caution in the Northwest & Central Bahamas.
