Area Forecast Discussion...UPDATED
National Weather Service San Juan PR
1030 AM AST Sun Oct 15 2017

.SYNOPSIS...
Latest analysis shows the t-wave axis moving into the Mona Passage,
with a large pocket of deep convection in its wake over the
USVI/Anegada passage. The 15/12Z TJSJ sounding showed deep low/mid
lvl moisture overhead with PW values arnd 2.50"...up from arnd 1.90"
24hrs ago. The sounding also revealed winds through the H100-H70
layer have veering from E/NE to S/SE with the passage of the t-wave.
High potential for showers and thunderstorms across most of the U.S.
Virgin Islands and Puerto Rico with unstable WX conditions expected
though midweek as a plume of tropical moisture works its way across
the NE Carib in the wake of the t-wave.

SHORT TERM...(Previous Discussion)

Today through Tuesday...Mid to upper level ridge will hold across
the local area over the next several days. A tropical wave
approaching from the east will bring unsettled conditions across the
local islands through at least midweek. Early this morning, the axis
of the tropical wave was located over the Anegada Passage. The wave
is forecast to cross Puerto Rico later today. As a result, low level
winds will shift to the southeast by this afternoon. Operational
models suggest that the bulk of the activity will remain over the
Atlantic Waters north of the USVI and Puerto Rico. However, high
moisture content and instability combined with a low level jet of 20-
25 kt at 925MB - 850MB will likely result in showers and
thunderstorms across portions of the local islands, especially the
southeast quadrant of Puerto Rico where the models suggest the
highest rainfall accumulations. The best moisture convergence
appears to be over Puerto Rico by Monday afternoon. In terms of
rainfall, most of the islands will receive between 1 to 3 inches of
rain, except the south central and south west Puerto Rico where less
than one inch is expected through Tuesday.

LONG TERM...(Previous Discussion)

Wednesday through Sunday...weather conditions will remain very moist
through Wednesday in the wake of the tropical wave. Therefore,
showers and thunderstorms can not ruled out especially across the
southeast and northwest Puerto Rico on Wednesday. A drier and more
stable air mass is forecast across the forecast area from Thursday
into the weekend as a mid-level ridge builds over the Northeast
Caribbean and the Azores High expands farther westward over the
Eastern Caribbean.

&&

AVIATION...
The axis of the tropical has pushed into the Mona passage with sct-
nmrs IFR shras and isold LIFR tsras developing in its wake over the
USVI and off the SE coast of PR. Winds through FL100 have shifted to
the S/SE, which will allow shras and tsras to develop over PR by
early afternoon with the bulk of the convection occurring north of
TJMZ-TJPS...sfc wind G25-30KTS, lightning, and LIFR vsbys/cigs
expected. Shras/tsras expect to continue over TKPK/TNCM thru sunset
before diminishing in coverage overnight.

&&

.MARINE...(Previous Discussion)
Marine conditions will continue to deteriorate through Monday as
the tropical wave moves across the regional waters. The wave will
increase the winds and seas across most of the waters, resulting
in winds of 10-20 kt and seas up to 8 feet across the offshore
waters and up to 5 feet across the nearshore waters. Marine
conditions will gradually improve as the wave moves away from the
area the second part of the week.

&&

.SJU WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES...
PR...VI...Small Craft Advisory through 6 PM AST Monday for St.
     Thomas...St. John...and Adjacent Islands.

AM...Small Craft Advisory until 6 PM AST Monday for Anegada
     Passage Southward to 17N.

     Small Craft Advisory until 6 PM AST Monday for Caribbean
     Waters of Puerto Rico from 10 NM to 17N-Coastal Waters of
     Southern USVI Vieques and Eastern Puerto Rico out 10 NM-Mona
     Passage Southward to 17N.

     Small Craft Advisory until 6 PM AST Monday for Atlantic Waters
     of Puerto Rico and USVI from 10 NM to 19.5N.

vientos en rafagas breves hoy, mayormente a traves de porciones de
sureste y norte de PR.

.Inundaciones...Fuertes lluvias podrian resultar en inundaciones
urbanas y de rios al igual que deslizamientos cercano a terreno
empinado.

miercoles a medida que humedad tropical profunda continue penetrando
a traves de la region. Por lo tanto, la amenaza de aguaceros y
tronadas a traves de las islas permaneceran alta hasta mediados de
semana. Debido a suelos ya saturados, cualquier lluvia fuerte
adicional resultara en inundaciones urbanas y de rios al igual que
deslizamientos cercano a terreno empinado. Un riesgo moderado de
corrientes marinas tambien continuara hasta mediados de semana a
traves de la mayoria de las playas locales.

.Comunicado sobre informacion reportada por observadores...

No se anticipa activacion amplia de observadores, sin embargo, se
