Weather Summary for Puerto Rico
National Weather Service San Juan PR
521 PM AST Tue Nov 19 2019

Mostly sunny skies prevailed across much of the islands today. The
exception was over parts of the interior and west sections of
Puerto Rico where showers and isolated thunderstorms developed
and produced periods of locally heavy rains. Some of the heavy
rains lead to minor urban and small stream flooding as well as
ponding of water on roadways and poor drainage areas. Daytime high
temperatures were in the upper 80s along the coastal areas. Winds
were generally light from the east at 10 mph or less except for
local sea breeze variations.

Skies will become mostly clear to partly cloudy just after sunset,
with most of the shower activity expected to diminish over the
land areas. By early morning a few passing showers may again affect
parts of the north and east coastal sections of the islands but
the shower activity will be quick passing. For the rest of the
day mostly sunny skies in the morning will become partly cloudy
to variably cloudy over Puerto Rico during the afternoon, as
showers with possible isolated thunderstorms will develop over
the interior and west sections of the island. Some of the activity
may again lead to minor urban and small stream flooding, as well
as ponding of water on roadways and in poor drainage areas.
Overnight low temperatures will range from the mid 60s across the
higher elevations to the mid to upper 70s across coastal areas.
Winds will become light and variable to calm over land areas.

A northerly swell will maintain seas up to 7 feet overnight over
the offshore Atlantic waters, but will gradually subside to 6
feet or less on Wednesday as the swell fades. A small craft
advisory will remain in effect until early Wednesday Morning.
Across the the rest of the regional waters, seas should range
between 3 to 6 feet with easterly winds at less than 10 knots
expected to prevail. There is a high risk of rip currents for most
of the northern beaches of Puerto Rico overnight through Wednesday.
