AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE SAN JUAN PR
550 AM AST MON NOV 16 2009

.SYNOPSIS...FRONTAL BOUNDARY WILL BE AFFECTING THE LOCAL REGION AT
LEAST THROUGH TONIGHT. DRIER AIR EXPECTED WEDNESDAY NIGHT INTO THURSDAY
WHEN A HIGH PRESSURE BEGINS TO BUILD ACROSS THE WESTERN ATLANTIC.
FLASH FLOOD WATCH WILL BE IN EFFECT FOR ALL PUERTO RICO AND THE
U.S. VIRGIN ISLANDS AT LEAST THROUGH TONIGHT.

&&

.DISCUSSION...HEAVY RAIN HAS BEEN OCCURRING ACROSS
VIEQUES...CULEBRA...AND LATELY ACROSS THE SOUTHWEST CORNER OF
PUERTO RICO. AN URBAN AND SMALL STREAM FLOOD ADVISORY WAS ISSUED
OVERNIGHT FOR VIEQUES AND CULEBRA...AND WILL BE EXTENDED UNTIL
8:30 AM AST DUE TO THE PERSISTENT LINE OF HEAVY SHOWERS OVER BOTH
ISLANDS/MUNICIPALITIES. ALSO...A FLASH FLOOD WATCH WILL BE IN
EFFECT FOR ALL PUERTO RICO AND THE U.S. VIRGIN ISLANDS STARTING AT
11 AM AST. THIS ACTIVE WEATHER IS IN RESPONSE TO A FRONTAL BOUNDARY
SYSTEM WHICH HAS BEEN MOVING SLOWLY ACROSS THE COASTAL WATERS OF
PUERTO RICO. THIS SYSTEM...IS NOT EXPECTED TO CLEAR THE LOCAL AREA
AT LEAST THROUGH WEDNESDAY. IN FACT...THE NAM12 MODEL BRINGS A
SIGNIFICANT AMOUNT OF MOISTURE OVERNIGHT WEDNESDAY...AND IS
FORECASTING A GOOD DEAL OF SHOWER ACTIVITY MAINLY ACROSS THE
EASTERN HALF OF PUERTO RICO. MEANWHILE...THE GFS COMPUTER MODEL
TENDS TO BE LESS AGGRESSIVE...BUT OVERALL...SHOWS NICE MOISTURE
OVER THE LOCAL AREA. A HIGH PRESSURE SYSTEM IS FORECAST BY
COMPUTER MODELS TO MOVE ACROSS THE WESTERN ATLANTIC...AND WILL
PUSH THE REMNANT OF THIS FRONT TOWARD THE EAST SOUTHEAST. DRIER
AIR IS THEN FORECAST TO MOVE OVER THE LOCAL AREA...STARTING LATE
WEDNESDAY INTO THURSDAY. LATEST PROGNOSIS SOUNDINGS INDICATE THAT
PRECIPITABLE WATER VALUES WILL DROP FROM OVER 2.0 INCHES
TODAY...TO NEAR 1.28 INCHES BY THURSDAY. HOWEVER...ANOTHER
INCREASE IN MOISTURE IS THEN FORECAST BY NEXT WEEKEND...BUT DOES
NOT LOOKS ANY SIMILAR TO WHAT WE HAVE RIGHT NOW. PEOPLE LIVING IN
PUERTO RICO AND THE U.S. VIRGIN ISLANDS SHOULD CONTINUE TO BE
AWARE OF THE POSSIBILITY FOR HEAVY RAINFALL. AVOID LOW LYING
AREAS...AND BE CAREFUL WHEN APPROACHING HIGHWAY DIPS AND
UNDERPASSES. THE HEAVY RAIN COULD ALSO CAUSE MUDSLIDES IN AREAS OF
STEEP TERRAIN. STAY TUNED FOR MORE INFORMATION.

&&

.AVIATION...THE APPROACH OF A COLD FRONT TO PUERTO RICO IS BRINGING
AREA-WIDE SCATTERED TO NUMEROUS SHOWERS AND AREAS OF THUNDERSTORMS
ACCOMPANIED BY IFR VISIBILITIES AND SOME MVFR CEILINGS. EXPECT THE
FRONTAL BOUNDARY TO REMAIN NEARBY AND CONVECTION TO CONTINUE THROUGH
17/04Z. MTN OBSCURATIONS ARE EXPECTED DURING THE PERIOD. WINDS BELOW
12 THOUSAND FEET ARE ARE SOUTH SOUTHWEST 10 TO 30 KTS.

&&

.HYDROLOGY...DUE TO ACTIVE WEATHER EXPECTED TODAY...AND SATURATED

ALONG THE RIVERS AND ITS SURROUNDING TRIBUTARIES ARE POSSIBLE THIS
AFTERNOON THROUGH TONIGHT.
