Weather Summary for Puerto Rico
National Weather Service San Juan PR
540 PM AST Mon Oct 15 2018

Mostly cloudy skies prevailed over Puerto Rico through the day.
Showers and thunderstorms were observed in the morning and early
afternoon across eastern Puerto Rico, while southwestern Puerto
Rico observed a few showers and thunderstorms in the afternoon.
The estimated rainfall totals across these sectors were mainly
between 1 and 3 inches. The daytime maximum temperatures were in
the low to mid 80s across the lower elevations and in the mid to
upper 70s across the higher elevations.  

The tropical wave that affected the local islands today is moving
away, but deep moisture will linger over the local area for the
next few days. For tonight, mostly fair weather is expected with
brief moments of isolated to scattered light showers, then 
Tuesday afternoon should have another round of showers and 
thunderstorms in the afternoon hours, across eastern Puerto Rico
in the early afternoon and across southwestern Puerto Rico in the
mid to late afternoon hours. A tropical wave will move in and
increase the chances for showers and thunderstorms over the local
area by Wednesday. Drier air moves by Thursday afternoon but 
diurnally induced afternoon convection is expected over the 
western sections of the island.

Across the regional waters, seas up to 6 feet are expected mainly
across the Caribbean and Atlantic waters, elsewhere seas should be
up to 5 feet. There is a moderate risk of rip currents across most
of the local beaches tonight.
