Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service San Juan PR
633 AM AST Mon Oct 17 2016

.SYNOPSIS...
A southerly wind flow is expected to dominate the local area, as
a surface low developed to the East of Bahamas. This southerly
wind flow will interact with a stationary frontal boundary,
associated with Nicole, to bring an increase in tropical moisture
across the islands through at least mid week. In addition, an
upper level ridge is expected to slowly erode as an upper low
approaches the Lesser Antilles, but as this low moves closer, an
upper high pressure build over the region. Locally induced
showers and possible thunderstorms are expected mainly along and
to the North of the Cordillera Central of Puerto Rico, as well as
passing showers over the U.S. Virgin Islands and their surrounding
waters each day.

&&

.DISCUSSION...
In general, fair weather conditions were observed across the
islands overnight. The minimum temperatures dropped below 80s
across the coastal areas and below 70s over the Mountainous areas.
A dry air mass is expected to move across the islands today,
however afternoon showers and thunderstorms are expected due to
the local effects and diurnal heating.

As the surface low develop to the East of Bahamas a southerly
wind flow is expected to prevail across the region. This wind
flow will bring deep tropical moisture across the area between
Tuesday and Wednesday. Therefore, the local effect, diurnal
heating and the available moisture will increase the potential for
localized flooding mainly along and to the North of the
Cordillera Central during that period.

&&

.AVIATION...
VFR conditions expected at all TAF sites overnight. Aft
17/16z, SHRA/ Isold TSRA development psbl ovr western and Interior
PR. As a result, mtn top obscr as well as prds of MVFR conds psbl at
TJBQ/TJMZ with VCSH at TJSJ. Light and variable winds overnight.

&&

.MARINE...
A northerly swell is producing dangerous marine conditions across
the coastal areas of Puerto Rico and Northern U.S. Virgin Islands.
As a result a small craft advisory is in effect across the
Atlantic and Caribbean passages. In addition dangerous rip
currents are expected along the northern coastline of Puerto Rico.
Also, long period northerly swell are expected to move across the
local waters through the week.
