Weather Summary for Puerto Rico
National Weather Service San Juan PR
539 PM AST Sat Jan 6 2018

Scattered showers moved across the area this morning bringing rain
to eastern Puerto Rico with only light amounts. Heavier showers
grew over northwest Puerto Rico, but were brief and had almost
dissipated by 5 PM AST. Temperatures, under partly cloudy skies, 
reached the mid 80s in the lower elevations and the mid 70s in the
higher elevations. Jayuya even managed to reach 80 degrees today 
while San Juan had 86 degrees. Winds were 10 to 16 mph from the 
east with gusts in the lower 20s. 

A trough with a large area of moisture is invading from the east 
southeast and has already brought showers and a few gusty winds to
Saint Croix. This area will be moving into eastern Puerto Rico 
later this evening with modest accumulations. There is, however 
only a slight chance of rain over northwest Puerto Rico during the
overnight hours. Weather conditions will improve during the day,
Sunday, over the island, although northwest Puerto Rico will 
again see some afternoon showers. Expect some gusty winds 
overnight with these showers--up to as much as 30 mph for a brief 
time. Overnight lows will range from the mid 70s to the lower 60s;
highs tomorrow will be from the lower 70s to mid 80s.

Seas up to 10 feet are expected to continue across the Atlantic 
waters with seas up to 8 feet across the Anegada Passage. Seas 
will increase across the rest of the local waters through Monday night.
Therefore, Small Craft Advisories are in effect for most of the 
local waters tonight and all waters beginning Sunday morning. 
Additionally there is a High Surf Advisory for the the northern 
shores of Puerto Rico and Culebra and a high risk of rip currents 
for all of the local islands except the south shores of Puerto 
Rico.
