Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service San Juan PR
459 AM AST Tue Apr 11 2017

.SYNOPSIS...Induced SFC trough will remain over the local area
today with an upper trough helping the overall instability.
Available moisture will remain constant through Wednesday,
decreasing slightly in the latter part of the week. Fairly active
weather expected today and Wednesday, improving for the latter
part of the week.

&&

.SHORT TERM...Today through early Thursday...Scattered to
numerous showers and possibly isolated thunderstorms expected to
continued to affect the coastal waters and mainly eastern half or
Puerto Rico and the adjacent islands through the rest of the
morning hours. The surface trough and upper level instability will
result in periods of locally heavy rainfall in some area wind
possible minor flooding and ponding of waters in urban areas and
along smell rivers and streams. A flood advisory remain in effect
for portions of southeast PR until later this morning...and a
Flood Warning continued in effect for the Barceloneta and Manati
municipalities due to Rio Grande de Manati river going out of its
banks overnight and still running at dangerously high levels
although most of the rains have ended in that area.

For the rest of the morning and today most rivers and streams along
the northern half and east sections of PR will remain very unstable
and will quickly react to any additional rainfall which is expected
today. Residents and motorists should be alert due to possible heavy
rainfall across much of the islands today and remain alert to
possible flooding of roads, other low lying areas and small streams
and rivers.

As the surface trough continue to linger over the forecast area...
the chances for scattered to numerous showers and isolated
thunderstorms will remain high today.  The instability aloft along
with good moisture convergence and local effects will maintain
conditions ripe for enhanced convection across parts of the islands
today...especially across the interior and and northern half of
Puerto Rico as well as the adjacent islands of Vieques and Culebra.
These conditions can be expected through at least Wednesday with a
gradual improvement by Thursday.

.LONG TERM...Even though the available moisture should remain
similar to the beginning of the week, a gradual improvement in
the weather conditions is expected to begin on Thursday as the
upper trough starts to weaken. So the shower activity is expected
to be less for the latter part of the week. The long range models
indicate that the bulk of the moisture and shower activity will be
just to the south of the local islands, over the Caribbean waters.
Of course it is a bit too far in the forecast period to be highly
confident and also the moisture boundary is very close to the
local islands according to guidance, so at this time the forecast
is for the more persistent showers to be outside of the local
islands but we cannot rule out some persistent showers over the
islands late this week, especially for Saint Croix which is the
closest to where the long range models indicate will have the more
persistent showers.

.MARINE...Seas up to 5 feet are expected today and for the next
several days until maybe the upcoming weekend when seas could
increase with the arrival of a northerly swell. There is currently
a moderate risk of rip currents along the north coast of Puerto
Rico and Culebra as well as the eastern coast of Vieques. The
northwest coast of Saint Thomas and the southern coast of Saint
Croix also have a moderate risk of rip currents.
