8/26/2020 The 7 day forecast is taking about 5 seconds to load but it will eventually load. NOAA is still working on it. 8/18/2020 NOAA continues to have trouble. Wind guest will occasionally be left off graphs. I am working with NOAA to resolve the issue. 12/16/2019 NOAA is having trouble with requests that include wind gusts. I am posting graphs without wind gusts until it gets fixed. 10/9/2019 Updated the Marine Zones. 9/4/2019 Fixed the weather maps due to NOAA moving them. 7/25/2019 New feature in the Airports section gives a link to 5 minute updates for data reports. |

Synopsis for puerto rico and the uS. Virgin islands waters... As a high pressure moves into the north-central atlantic early in the week, moderate to locally fresh east-southeast trades will prevail through much of the workweek. A tropical wave forecast to cross the eastern caribbean later tonight through Monday will increase the chance for shower and isolated Thunderstorm development across the regional waters.

Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service San Juan PR 802 PM AST Sun Sep 27 2020
UPDATE. Weather grids were updated to match current shower and thunderstorm activity, as well as recent model guidance. The combination of an upper-level trough to the north and the passage of a weak tropical wave will enhance shower and thunderstorm development across the forecast area. During the night and early morning hours, this activity will favor the local waters into portions of eastern Puerto Rico, including Vieques and Culebra, and the US Virgin Islands. As the day progresses on Monday, sufficient moisture along with diurnal heating, local effects and favorable conditions aloft will aid in the development of showers and thunderstorms over land. Under a generally east to east- southeast wind flow, afternoon convection will cluster along the interior and western portions of Puerto Rico. Streamer-like showers are possible downwind from Sierra de Luquillo and the local islands into eastern Puerto Rico and the San Juan metropolitan area. Since soils are somewhat saturated, there is a threat for urban and small stream flooding with the strongest activity. For the US Virgin Islands, limited shower activity is expected in the afternoon. Overnight lows are forecast to drop into the mid 70s to lower 80s, while daytime highs are expected to peak into the upper 80s to lower 90s across lower elevations. Winds will be light and variable, increasing during the day and gusty near the shower and thunderstorm activity.
AVIATION. TSRA/SHRA activity is expected during the next 24 hours. First, expected to affect TJSJ, USVI terminals, and Leeward terminals through 28/12Z. Then, afternoon convection will bring TSRA/SHRA to TJSJ and TJBQ between 28/16-22Z. VCSH expected elsewhere through at least 28/22Z. Winds will be variable at 5-15 knots through 28/14Z, increasing to 10-20 knots and turning from the east thereafter.
MARINE. Small craft operators are urged to exercise caution across the Anegada Passage, offshore Caribbean and Atlantic waters, as well as coastal waters of eastern Puerto Rico and the US Virgin Islands due to winds up to 20 knots tonight. Elsewhere, tranquil marine conditions with seas up to 5 feet and winds up to 15 knots are expected. Choppy marine conditions due to higher winds will extend across the regional waters through at least midweek. A moderate risk of rip currents is expected for the beaches along the northwest to northeastern coast of Puerto Rico, some of the beaches in Culebra and Vieques, and eastern-most beaches of Saint Croix.
PREV DISCUSSION. /issued 230 PM AST Sun Sep 27 2020/
SYNOPSIS . A tropical wave moving across the Lesser Antilles will bring additional moisture over the area later today through Monday. Currently, low-level moisture is running above normal and this will continue through late Monday night. A mid to upper-level trough (TUTT) extends northeast of the northern Leeward islands southwestward into the eastern Caribbean. The tropical wave and TUTT will enhance afternoon convection through Monday. By mid-week another tropical wave is expected to transverse the region, followed by a drier air mass by the end of the week.
SHORT TERM . Rest of Today through Tuesday .
Light showers drifted across portions of Puerto Rico and adjacent islands through most of the morning hours. This activity is being produced by an upper-level trough and a TUTT low to the northeast of Puerto Rico. The upper-level low is expected to slowly sink to the southwest over the next several hours. Also, a week tropical wave is currently passing through the Lesser Antilles and will invade the local waters later today. The features above will impact our weather through Monday. The wave will increase low- level moisture and instability, while the TUTT and upper-level trough will provide upper-level instability. The above will result in an increase in showers and thunderstorms during the afternoons.
Today, showers and isolated thunderstorms are expected to develop across eastern, interior, western and southwestern areas of Puerto Rico today. This activity could cause urban and small stream flooding and ponding of water on roadways. Tonight, isolated to scattered showers are possible due to the wave moving through the area.
Monday, PWAT will remain higher than normal due to the departing tropical wave moisture lingering over the region. The combination of local and diurnal heating coupled with the departing wave moisture will cause showers and thunderstorms across Puerto Rico.
Tuesday, the above normal moisture moves west of Puerto Rico as a drier air mass filters into the area from the east. Therefore, expect showers and thunderstorm activity to decrease, however, showers and thunderstorms are expected to develop as a result of diurnal heating and sea breeze convergence.
PREV DISCUSSION . /issued 435 AM AST Sun Sep 27 2020/ LONG TERM . Wednesday through Monday .
A tropical wave is expected to move over the islands on Wednesday, increasing moisture content once again with precipitable water values around 1.9 to 2.2 inches. Additionally, a mid-level trough in the area will cause instability to increase, with cold temperatures and divergence aloft. As a result, showers and thunderstorms are expected over the islands. Urban and small stream flooding will be possible. For the rest of the workweek, some Saharan dust will filter from the east, resulting in hazy skies. However, fragmented groups of clouds embedded in the trade winds will also move over the area. Therefore, the available moisture in combination with local effects will result in afternoon activity, especially over the interior and western Puerto Rico. For the weekend, a mid to upper level high pressure will begin to build north of the western Atlantic, decreasing instability levels aloft. At the lower levels,a drier air mass is expected to move in, with some Saharan dust lingering and precipitable water values falling to near 1.6 inches. Hence, a decrease in rainfall activity can be expected through Monday.
AVIATION . VFR but SCT-BKN lyrs nr FL025 . FL050 with SHRA/Isold TSRA in and around the local islands til 27/23Z, and en route btw PR and the northern Leeward Islands as a tropical wave crosses the Lesser Antilles and enters the eastern Caribbean overnight. VCSH at all terminals today with VCTS mainly at TNCM/TKPK/TJSJ/TJMZ/TJPS til 27/23Z. Sfc wnd mainly fm NE with sea breeze variations bcmg light and variable aft 27/23Z.
MARINE . The northerly swell has finally dissipated across the local and outer waters. Seas up to 5 feet with, and winds from the east to northeast up to 15 kts. A tropical wave will transverse the local waters today through early Monday, and cause choppy seas over the local waters. Also, showers and thunderstorms are expected to develop over the local waters over the next several days.
