SATELLITE ANALYSIS AND TRENDS...SHORT WAVE IMPULSE THAT CAME OUT OF THE
S CARIBBEAN/AREA NORTH OF PANAMA A FEW DAYS AGO NOW PUSHING ACROSS
S BAHAMAS WITH TROUGH ACROSS THE DOMINICAN REPUBLIC.  NOT SURE WHETHER
THIS IS HAVING ANY DESTABILIZING AFFECT DOWNSTREAM IN PUERTO RICO BUT
THOUGHT I WOULD MENTION IT.  MICROWAVE SHOWED DEEP MOISTURE CENTERED OVER
THE ISLAND MAXING OUT AT 2.0" OR GREATER AND OVER 150 PERCENT OF NORMAL.
HEATING AND OROGRAPHIC LIFT FROM SELY FLOW ALREADY HELPING CONVECTION
START IN NW QUARTER OF THE ISLAND WITH COLDEST TOPS CONFINED TO N
CENTRAL PART IN CIALES COUNTY WITH ANOTHER HVY RAIN CELL IN LARES IN
THE NW INTERIOR.  THE RAPID NATURE OF THE COOLING TOPS AND OVER 2.0" PW
MOISTURE CAN GIVE 2.0" OR GREATER RAINFALL IN A 30-60 MINUTE TIME PERIOD.
