THE WEATHER: BUT WAIT, A DIFFERENT PERSPECTIVE!!!! I will try to make this quick because I know the locals hate this topic, lol 😎 So I am FINALLY going to be there in like 24 hours. Listen close, lol................. I have never been to the USVI before. I see all the "joke" comments about the weather and the responses people get. Every time I see these "idiotic" responses I check the weather! I got used to the "hahaha jokes" and the "don't worry, it will only rain 60% on 10% of the island"............. trust me, I know and heard all of that! But look at STX from about March 9th through the 15th!!!!! It looks like a tropical storm is coming through!!!! Is this what everyone else has seen from the previous responders???? I know, I know, "don't worry", but like I said, when anyone else posts on here and freaks out, or even tripadvisor or wherever, it shows at least a little sun........................ um, it is showing NASTY STUFF RIGHT NOW! So what is the deal??? I mean, I thought STT and STX did not get much rain in March???? Signed, a long time researcher that has never been there............ so what does this future forecast mean????? That we will have 24/7 rain showers????? It looks NASTY!!!!!!

Can't speak for St Croix, and after all it is 45 miles away, but today I was all over Water Island and St Thomas and I got a light sprinkle twice for 2 minutes and after being in Radio Shack for 20 minutes I came out at 5:30 and the street was wet so I missed the 60% part. Lots of sunshine and wind today. Bring a rain coat if you are worried about getting wet.

The weather site I always recommend has plenty of data for you to look at and try and predict the weather - there doesn't seem to be any likelihood of a 'tropical storm' - no low pressure systems in a developmental stage.
