EVENT...STLT TRENDS FOR ADDITIONAL HVY TSTMS OVER WRN PUERTO RICO
.
SATELLITE ANALYSIS AND TRENDS...STLT EST FOR MERGING TSTMS ALONG THE N
COAST..W OF TJSJ..WERE BTWN 2-3" FOR 1715Z-1815Z. THESE STMS HAVE MOVED
N. TSTMS OVER W/NW PUERTO FOR 1715-1845Z ARE ESTIMATED TO HAVE PRODUCED
AROUND 2". AT 1845Z..IMAGERY SHOWS HVY STMS ALONG NW COAST. CONCERN
GOING FORWARD IS FOR ADDITIONAL TSTMS TO DEVELOP OVER W AND NW PUERTO
RICO. CU/TCU IS DEVELOPING INVOF W COAST..NR TJMZ..AND OFFSHORE AS
WELL..WHICH COULD FURTHER DEVELOP INTO TSTMS. FAVORABLE FACTORS FOR NEW
TSTM DEVELOPMENT ARE DIVERGENCE ALOFT PER GOES WV IMAGERY ANIMATION.. AND
CONVECTIVE OUTFLOW FM TSTMS OVER ERN HISPANOLA SPEADING EWD.
.
BASED ON STLT TRENDS MENTIONED ABOVE..HVY SHOWERS AND TSTMS COULD AFFECT
PARTS OF W AND NW COASTAL SECTIONS OF PUERTO OVER THE NEXT FEW HRS. IF
NEW DEVELOPMENT DOES INDEED OCCUR..CELL MERGERS WILL BE LIKELY. THIS..IN
CONJUNCTION WITH HIGH PWS IN EXCESS OF 2" PER MICROWAVE DATA..WOULD
RESULT IN RAINFALL OVER 2"/HR.
