There is a good app that I use quite a bit for my maritime excursions called Windy. It gives you a fairly accurate wind forecast looking forward ten days. Looking at St. Barths, winds are currently NE about 15kts., turning to the east early in the week about 15kts, and then becoming pretty fresh early next week with winds easterly about 20kts. These 15-20 knot east-northeast winds are pretty common this time of year (Dec. - Feb.) and sometimes referred to as the Christmas winds.
