Ferry service has been suspended for the second time this week.
The Department of Marine and Ports said all ferry service was suspended as of 2.30pm because of bad weather and that normal operations would resume once conditions improve.
The Bermuda Weather Service said a trough was bringing showers, strong winds and a chance of hail to the island. It issued a thunderstorm advisory, gale warning and small craft warning today.
Gales are in effect until tomorrow afternoon and the small craft warning is valid until Saturday night.
Weather also caused ferries to be grounded on Tuesday.
