SYNOPSIS
A dense plume of Saharan Dust will continue to affect the local islands through Thursday. This dense plume will continue to promote hazy skies, lower visibilities and hot temperatures across the area. Expect warm to hot temperatures each day, resulting in excessive heat warnings and heat advisories across Puerto Rico and the USVI.
SHORT TERM
Tonight through Thursday...
The presence of the Saharan Air Layer promoted hazy skies across the region today. Fair weather conditions were observed across the islands, with very limited precipitation across the western municipalities of Puerto Rico. It was very hot today too, with temperatures in the upper 80s to mid 90s in the lower and higher elevations. The Luis Munoz Marin International Airport reported a maximum temperature of 92 degrees Fahrenheit. The previous record was 97 degrees Fahrenheit in 1983. Today, heat indices reached the 110 to 115 degrees Fahrenheit in many places, especially along the northwestern and north central portions of Puerto Rico.
An Excessive Heat Warning and a Heat Advisory was in effect for all the islands through the late afternoon hours.
Warmer-than-normal temperatures will continue through at least Thursday due to the presence of Saharan Dust and high low-level humidity. At this time showers are not anticipated, however, if showers get to develop they will be short lived over western and northwestern Puerto Rico. Similar weather conditions are expected through Thursday afternoon. An Excessive Heat Watch will be in effect each day. By Thursday, a trade wind perturbation will increase humidity, and the potential for showers and isolated thunderstorms across western Puerto Rico.
LONG TERM
Friday through Tuesday...
/FROM PREV DISCUSSION
Issued at 526 AM AST Tue Jun 25 2024/
The inherited forecast remains unchanged. The latest model guidance continues to suggest a slight increase in instability through the end of the workweek into the early weekend as an induced low-level trade wind perturbation streams across the local area.
This perturbation will allow the moisture content to increase through the mid-levels of the atmosphere, increasing the chance of isolated thunderstorms and showers. Precipitable water models show values ranging from normal to slightly above normal climatological levels. By the weekend, the surface high-pressure system will position across the Atlantic basin, dragging tropical moisture into the islands through next week. At this time, we anticipate that this moisture, along with the diurnal heating, will promote the development of afternoon showers and isolated thunderstorms each day, particularly across the western interior sections of Puerto Rico, as mostly easterly winds will dominate the forecast area.
A slight change in weather conditions is foreseen as drier air will filter across Puerto Rico and the U.S. Virgin Islands on Monday, which may reduce the chance of showers. Nevertheless, a typical seasonal weather pattern of passing showers and afternoon convection is expected.
AVIATION
(18Z TAFs)
A dense plume of Saharan dust will promote hazy skies across TAF sites, that will result in lower VIS. The winds will remain mainly from the east to east-southeast at 10-20 kt with gusts between 20 and 30 kt for the rest of the afternoon hours. Some isolated showers are possible across the interior and western PR between 25/18-23z.
Winds should become lighter during the evening and overnight hours, then increase again around 26/13-15Z from the east to east- southeast.
MARINE
A surface high pressure over the central Atlantic will promote moderate to fresh east-southeasterly winds. Trade wind showers will move across the regional waters from time to time. Hazy skies are expected through Thursday due to Saharan dust.
