Synopsis for puerto rico and the uS. Virgin islands waters... A surface high pressure over the north central atlantic will continue to promote a moderate east to southeast wind flow through Monday. Moisture behind a weak tropical wave will aid in developing passing showers and isolated Thunderstorms over the local waters late tonight and Saturday. Drier dusty air will arrive early next week associated with somewhat stronger winds.

(on/off) Help NOTE: mouseover dotted underlined text for definition| Fxca62 tjsj 231754 afdsju area forecast discussion national weather service san juan pr 154 pm ast Fri aug 23 2019 Synopsis Lingering moisture trailing the departed tropical wave will continue to aid in the development of showers and possibly isolated thunderstorms mainly across the northwest quadrant of puerto rico and downwind from the u.S. Virgin islands and EL yunque during the rest of the afternoon. Mid to upper level ridge pattern will build and hold across the region through most of the weekend. A drier and more stable air will filter in across the region in association with an extensive saharan air layer over the weekend. The highest concentration of the suspended saharan dust particulates is forecast Sunday through Monday of next week. Short term Rest of today through Sunday... overall drier airmass is expected beginning tonight with skies becoming mostly clear to partly cloudy and limited shower activity. However, the prevailing east to southeast trades will transport occasional patches of moisture across the region from time to time. This will result in periods of passing showers over portions of the u.S. Virgin islands and mainly the north and east sections of puerto rico during the overnight and early morning hours. Recent satellite imagery satellite imagery as well as model guidance both suggest a slot of drier air is to move westward and spread across the region accompanying the aforementioned saharan air layer. Another weak easterly wave and moisture surge will bring a swath of additional moisture brief gusty winds across the region late Saturday through early Sunday in advance of the saharan air layer. Therefore this added moisture will promote locally induced showers and thunderstorms particularly during the afternoon hours and over parts of the central interior and west to north west sections of puerto rico and downwind of the u.S.Virgin islands. Thereafter, and the rest of Sunday through Monday,a rapid drying trend is forecast as a dense saharan air mass is forecast to arrive and persist through the early part of the upcoming work week. Long term Monday through Friday... on Monday, the very dry and extensive saharan air mass will hold across the region resulting in hazy skies and limited daytime convection through at least Tuesday. This stable air mass along with overall subsidence aloft will inhibit significant convective development during the afternoons through the early part of the period. However, isolated to scattered afternoon showers are possible each day as a result of diurnal and local effects. The strongest shower activity and heaviest rainfall are forecast to develop over the interior and western areas of puerto rico with only isolated showers in and around the u.S. Virgin islands. |
Additionally, isolated afternoon thunderstorms can not be ruled out across parts of the west interior sections of areas of puerto rico. By Tuesday and Wednesday, model guidance continues to suggest the low level high pressure ridge is to sink southwards across the region and induce a fairly tight pressure gradient and better moisture convergence. This will allow better pooling of tropical moisture and result in a return of the deep tropical moisture and diminishing a saharan air layer over the region. The additional tropical moisture will favor better chance for the development of showers and isolated thunderstorms during the afternoons mid week especially over the central interior and south of the cordillera central. By Thursday and Friday, an active tropical wave is expected enter and move across the eastern caribbean. Based on the latest model guidance, this feature along with better upper level support will may support a better chance for numerous to widespread showers and isolated thunderstorms. However because of the inconsistencies in the models as to exactly where this feature may pass confidence in the amount of rainfall across the region is still low at least for the next few days. We will however continue to monitor this feature and see how it unfolds over the next few days. Regardless , there is better potential for a wetter pattern during the latter part of the period. Aviation MainlyVFR conditions are expected to persist through the forecast period. Vcts are expected for tjmz tjbq and vcsh are expected for tjsj tist tkpk. The latest GFS forecast shows winds at fl050 coming out of the east southeast at 10 to 20 knots. Marine Seas up to 6 feet and winds up to 20 knots are expected across the local waters during the period. Therefore, small craft operators are urged to exercise caution especially over the offshore waters and local passages. There is a moderate risk of rip currents for some of the north, east and and southern beaches during the period.

Finally, tide and current data on this site is from 2007 and 2008 data bases, which may contain even older data. Changes in harbors due to building or dredging change tides and currents and for that reason many of the locations presented are no longer supported by newer data bases. For example, there is very little tidal current data in newer data bases so current data is likely wrong to some extent. This data is NOT FOR NAVIGATION. See the XTide disclaimer for details. In addition, tide and current are influenced by storms, river flow, and other factors beyond the ability of any predictive program. |
