Weather Summary for Puerto Rico...CORRECTED
National Weather Service San Juan PR
512 PM AST Fri Apr 7 2017

Skies were mostly sunny across most of Puerto Rico and the adjacent
islands, as high pressure dominated the local weather conditions.
The exception was over portions of the interior and west sections
of Puerto rico where showers formed and produced periods of
moderate to locally heavy downpours in isolated spots. Daytime 
high temperatures were again near the mid 80s along coastal areas.
Except for local sea breezes winds were from the east at 10 to 15
mph with occasional higher gusts mainly along the coastal areas. 

Mid to upper level high pressure ridge is expected to hold across
the region at least until Saturday, with limited moisture transport
expected across most of the region. However, by late Saturday and
through Sunday, the surface high north of the region is forecast 
to weaken as an induce prefrontal trough sets up across the region.
This will support a gradual increase in low level moisture convergence
and southeast trade winds. As a result some of the afternoon shower
activity will be locally enhanced and may lead to periods of isolated
heavy rainfall mainly across parts of the west and northwest sections
of Puerto Rico. Afternoon high temperatures are forecast to continue
in the mid to upper 80s.

Mariners should expect winds 15 knots or less and seas up to 5 feet
mainly across the offshore waters and the local passages. There is
a high risk of rip currents along the Atlantic shoreline of Puerto
Rico.
