Increasing cloud cover and showers are anticipated overnight as a tropical wave moves across the western Caribbean and influences the Cayman Islands. Lingering moisture associated with the wave may support occasional cloudy spells and a few showers into Friday morning before a building ridge of high pressure promotes more stable conditions later into the day.
