Area forecast discussion, Nov 4, 1:02 PM CDT, 28 minutes before
Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service San Juan PR 202 PM AST Fri Nov 4 2016 .SYNOPSIS...Upper level long wave trough with axis extending south across the local area in the northern Caribbean. A strong energy impulse exiting the Atlantic seaboard moving eastward into the north Atlantic. abundant deep layer moisture across the northeast Caribbean. && .DISCUSSION...The energy/short wave exiting the Atlantic seaboard will result in the long wave trough...mentioned above...deepening across the eastern Caribbean. This will in turn contribute to further destabilize the local atmosphere through the weekend and into the early part of next week. while the upper trough will provide the lifting mechanism...abundant moisture will also provide the fuel for a rather wet period through at least the middle part of next week. Models continue to suggest a rather wet Sunday through Tuesday period. Too early to tell precipitation amounts for the early part of next week...but if current trend persists...this bears watching...especially since grounds are already saturated across Puerto Rico and the USVI. && .AVIATION...MVFR conds will remain possible at JMZ/JBQ and JSJ till around 04/22z as SHRA/TSRA continues to develop over and north of the Cordillera Central and Sierra de Luquillo. VCTS likely ISX and the Leeward terminals this afternoon. Aft 04/22z, mostly VFR conds at all PR terminals with VCTS expected at USVI and Leeward terminals. ESE winds around 10 knots becoming light and variable overnight. && .MARINE...surface winds should continue from southeast at 15 knots or less through at least the early part of next week. && .PRELIMINARY POINT TEMPS/POPS... SJU 76 88 78 88 / 30 60 30 60 STT 78 87 79 87 / 50 40 60 60 && .SJU WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES... PR...None. VI...None. AM...None. && 09/08
