Weather Forecast for St. Kitts and Nevis: As tropical storm Philippe inches closer to the area, Antigua and Barbuda is now under a tropical storm watch. Over the next 24 hours, cloudiness, moisture and instability ahead of Philippe will significantly heighten the chances for shower and thunderstorm activity along with gusty winds over and around the Islands during that time. Swells propagating from the system will also result in hazardous conditions along coastal areas. Rainfall totals of up to 2 inches or 50.8 mm are possible during this time. Therefore, skies over St. Kitts and Nevis tonight will be fair to partly cloudy initially with a slight chance of a brief shower, becoming increasingly cloudy with periods of showers and thunderstorms after midnight. Tomorrow will be cloudy to overcast with numerous showers accompanied by thunderstorms and gusty winds.
