...A FLASH FLOOD WARNING REMAINS IN EFFECT UNTIL 645 PM AST FOR RIO
GRANDE MUNICIPALITY...

AT 531 PM AST...THE PUBLIC REPORTED ROUTE 191 THAT GOES TO THE EL 
YUNQUE NATIONAL RAIN FOREST IS CLOSED DUE TO THE MAMEYES RIVER OUT

MOST FLOOD DEATHS OCCUR IN AUTOMOBILES. NEVER DRIVE YOUR VEHICLE INTO
AREAS WHERE THE WATER COVERS THE ROADWAY. FLOOD WATERS ARE USUALLY
DEEPER THAN THEY APPEAR. JUST ONE FOOT OF FLOWING WATER IS POWERFUL
ENOUGH TO SWEEP VEHICLES OFF THE ROAD. WHEN ENCOUNTERING FLOODED
ROADS MAKE THE SMART CHOICE...TURN AROUND...DONT DROWN.

DO NOT UNDERESTIMATE THE POWER OF FLOOD WATERS. ONLY A FEW INCHES OF
RAPIDLY FLOWING WATER CAN QUICKLY CARRY AWAY YOUR VEHICLE.
