Weather Summary for Puerto Rico
National Weather Service San Juan PR
419 PM AST Mon Dec 10 2018

Mostly sunny skies prevailed across the region today under an overall
dry and stable airmass. Some clouds and a few afternoon showers were
noted over parts of the interior and northwest sections of Puerto
Rico. So far most of the activity was of light to moderate intensity
and fast moving. Winds were generally from the southeast at 10 to
15 mph with occasionally higher gusts. Daytime high temperatures 
were in the mid to high 80s along the coastal areas. 

Relatively dry and stable pattern is expected to continue across
the region through at least mid week. However, a few passing clouds
and trade wind showers will reach the coastal areas of the local 
islands at times. Afternoon showers, if any, will likely be focused
over northwest Puerto Rico as winds are expected to remain from the
east southeast through Tuesday. A slightly wetter pattern is possible
on Wednesday through early Thursday as an induced frontal trough will
favor better moisture transport and unstable conditions. A return of
a more east to northeast wind flow is expected by Friday with increasing
winds as the high pressure ridge is to build north of the region.

Across the local waters, seas will remain between 2 to 6 feet. Mariners
are urged to exercise caution mainly over the offshore waters and local
passages. The risk of rip currents is moderate along most of the beaches
of Puerto Rico, Vieques and Culebra, except western and south central
Puerto Rico. Seas will gradually improve through Wednesday as winds
decrease in response to the weak frontal trough forecast to linger
north of the islands.
