Luis, how much rain have you been getting?
any flooding?
Have you heard any news about flooding in DR and Haiti?

So far since last monday,parts of Puerto Rico have recieved between 5-7 inches.That is why as soon a shower falls,flooding occurs as the grounds are oversaturated.So far flooding has occured in urban areas. Some mudslides also have occured. And the forecast for more rain in comming days is omminous. I only got a report from Dominican Republic.

Some mudslides also have occured. And the forecast for more rain in comming days is omminous. I only got a report from Dominican Republic.

more than 4 inches in just 24 hours is dangerous, stay dry cycloneye. In El Salvador the drier than normal conditions of the last few days have come to an end and this afternoon/evening several showers and thunderstorms have developed, the forecasts call for wetter days from now on.

[Macrocane]

Today near normal lows were registered in Central America, and near normal highs except in El Salvador that had warmer than normal highs and Panama that registered again cooler than normal.

THE NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE IN SAN JUAN HAS ISSUED A

* FLASH FLOOD WATCH FOR PUERTO RICO AND VIRGIN ISLANDS.

* FROM NOON AST TODAY THROUGH TUESDAY AFTERNOON

* THE COMBINATION OF A LOW LEVEL WIND FLOW...AND AN UNSTABLE AIR
MASS OVER THE LOCAL AREA WITH A PERSISTENT LOW PRESSURE AREA IN
THE WEST CENTRAL CARIBBEAN...SOUTH OF HISPANIOLA...IS KEEPING
VERY DEEP MOISTURE OVER PUERTO RICO...AND THE U.S. VIRGIN
ISLANDS. HIGH MOISTURE CONTENT COMBINED WITH FAVORABLE UPPER
LEVEL UNSTABLE CONDITIONS AND A TROUGH MOVING ACROSS THE WESTERN
ATLANTIC WILL HELP TO GENERATE AREAS OF HEAVY RAINFALL THROUGH
AT LEAST TUESDAY. CURRENT INDICATIONS ARE THAT THE HEAVIEST
RAINS WILL OCCUR TONIGHT...MONDAY AND TUESDAY...WITH THE MOST
FLOODING LIKELY ON MONDAY AND TUESDAY.

RECENT HEAVY RAINS ACROSS THE WATCH AREA HAVE LEFT SOILS NEAR
SATURATION AND RIVERS AT ABOVE NORMAL LEVELS...WITH ANY ADDITIONAL
RAINS TURNING INTO RUNOFF. RAINFALL TOTALS OF 4 TO 6 INCHES...WITH
LOCALLY HIGHER AMOUNTS ARE EXPECTED...WHICH COULD ALSO FALL IN A
SHORT PERIOD OF TIME. THIS AMOUNT OF RAIN WILL CONTINUE TO HAVE
THE POTENTIAL TO CAUSE FLASH FLOODING OF SMALL STREAMS AND RIVERS AS
WELL AS URBAN AND POOR DRAINAGE AREAS.

PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS...

A FLASH FLOOD WATCH MEANS THAT CONDITIONS ARE FAVORABLE FOR HEAVY
RAIN ACROSS THE WATCH AREA...WHICH MAY LEAD TO FLOODING. IF YOU
ARE IN THE WATCH AREA...CHECK YOUR PREPAREDNESS REQUIREMENTS...
ESPECIALLY IF YOU HAVE INTERESTS ALONG AREA RIVERS. KEEP
INFORMED...AND BE READY FOR QUICK ACTION IF FLOODING IS OBSERVED
OR IF A FLASH FLOOD WARNING IS ISSUED.

PEOPLE IN THE WATCH AREA SHOULD CONTINUE TO BE AWARE OF THE
POSSIBILITY FOR HEAVY RAINFALL. AVOID LOW LYING AREAS...AND BE
CAREFUL WHEN APPROACHING HIGHWAY DIPS AND UNDERPASSES. THE

This morning's discussion from Crownweather Services:

http://www.crownweather.com/?page_id=4557

Invest 94-L: Satellite imagery this morning is indicating a marked increase in thunderstorm activity associated with an area of low pressure located about 150 miles to the southwest of Jamaica. Most of the really heavy thunderstorm activity, which is actually causing Invest 94-L to become a little better organized, is located to the east of the low pressure center. Environmental conditions are still expected to become more favorable over the next few days and slow organization and development into a tropical depression is possible this week.

My analysis this morning and my current thinking today is that the mid-level southwesterly wind shear may be starting to decrease and at the time the dry air in the mid-levels of the atmosphere may be moistening up this morning putting Invest 94-L in a more favorable environment for development. One thing to closely watch for today is that with such an intense area of convection located to the east of the low pressure center, whether a new low-level center of circulation will develop closer to the deep convection and allow this system to organize further.

The latest global model guidance are pointing towards a scenario of a very slow track to the northwest towards western Cuba and the Yucatan Peninsula this week and then ultimately this system is forecast by the model guidance to be pulled northward into the Gulf of Mexico by next weekend. The model guidance then disagree on what happens with 94L with the GFS model forecasting hostile shear conditions by the weekend which would rip this system apart while the European model guidance forecasts more favorable environmental conditions which could allow this system to maintain itself in the Gulf of Mexico.

Okay, this is what I’m thinking in terms of what Invest 94L may do this week into next weekend: I do think, given the forecast upper-air forecasts this week, that Invest 94L will track slowly northwestward reaching an area between the Yucatan Peninsula and western Cuba around Thursday or Friday. After that, I noticed that the European ensemble guidance is forecasting a weakness in the ridge of high pressure to be centered near 25 North Latitude, 90 West Longitude on Friday and just offshore of the Louisiana coast on Saturday. If Invest 94L is a tropical storm by the end of this week, which is quite possible, it may be steered towards this weakness in the high pressure ridge, meaning, any tropical cyclone entering the Gulf of Mexico may track towards the coast of Louisiana or the upper Texas coast next weekend.

Another possibility as posed by some of the other global model guidance is for a stronger trough of low pressure over the Gulf of Mexico to potential steer this system into the eastern Gulf of Mexico or across Florida by next weekend.

I do think that Invest 94L will become a tropical depression and very possibly tropical storm Arlene this week given the fact that a ridge of high pressure will strengthen to the north and east of Invest 94L and this will put this system in not only a favorable environment, but also cause this system to track slowly northwestward towards the area between the Yucatan Peninsula and western Cuba, as already mentioned. After that a track into the Gulf of Mexico is quite possible given the upper-air pattern forecasts with too many variables to make an accurate track forecast for next weekend.

Heavy rain will cause flash flooding and mudslides across Haiti and Jamaica for the next few days and all interests across this area should be alert for flash flooding and mudslides.

Given that Invest 94L is looking better organized this morning, I do think that the reconnaissance flight scheduled for this afternoon will still happen and this should not only give us a better idea of what is happening with Invest 94L, it should also give us more accurate data that will be input into the model guidance.

[Macrocane]

As I've told you, last night heavy rains developed over the central part of El Salvador, some of the accumulations are very high especially because they fell in less than 6 hours:

University of El Salvador (San Salvador): 85.2 mm/3.35 inches ,that's more than 25% of the normal rainfall in the whole month of June for this station.
Santa Cruz Porrillo: 80 mm/3.15 inches
Guadalupe: 72 mm/2.83 inches
Ilobasco 45 mm/1.77 inches
SNET (San Salvador): 26 mm/1.02 inches

By the way, in El Salvador June is the 2nd wettest month, only September has more rain.

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE SAN JUAN PR
303 PM AST SUN JUN 5 2011

.SYNOPSIS...AT UPPER LEVELS...A WEAK TROUGH EXTENDS OVER US INTO
THE EASTERN CARIBBEAN FROM A STRONG LOW PRESSURE IN THE WESTERN
ATLANTIC...BUT WILL LEAVE THE AREA TUESDAY. HIGH PRESSURE WILL
THEN DOMINATE THE EASTERN AND CENTRAL CARIBBEAN THROUGH THE END OF
THE PERIOD.

AT MID LEVELS...HIGH PRESSURE IN THE TROPICAL ATLANTIC WILL MOVE
INTO THE CARIBBEAN BETWEEN NOW AND FRIDAY...REACHING THE WINDWARD
PASSAGE BY NEXT SUNDAY. MID LEVEL MOISTURE WILL REMAIN GOOD TO
EXCELLENT DURING THE NEXT 5 TO 7 DAYS.

AT LOWER LEVELS...LOW PRESSURE MIDWAY BETWEEN THE PANAMA CANAL AND
CUBA WILL MOVE SLOWLY TOWARD CUBA. A TROUGH ROTATING AROUND THE
EAST SIDE OF THE LOW WILL CROSS THROUGH THE LOCAL AREA MONDAY
NIGHT WITH COPIOUS MOISTURE AND THEN CONTINUE NORTHEAST...POSSIBLY
FORMING A LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM THAT SPINS INTO THE CENTRAL ATLANTIC
AND AWAY FROM THE AREA. TROPICAL MOISTURE DIMINISHES SOMEWHAT ON
WEDNESDAY BUT WILL REMAIN SUFFICIENT TO FUEL CONVECTIVE ACTIVITY
FOR THE REST OF THE WEEK.

&&

.DISCUSSION...SHOWERS AND WIDESPREAD RAIN REMAINED IN THE ATLANTIC
WATERS THIS MORNING AND SPREAD INTO THE LOCAL CARIBBEAN WATERS
FROM THE SOUTHWEST THIS AFTERNOON. THUNDERSTORMS HAVE DEVELOPED
BETWEEN THE U.S. VIRGIN ISLANDS...AND AROUND SAINT THOMAS...SAINT
JOHN AND SAINT CROIX. STRONG CONVECTION LIKE YESTERDAY DID NOT
DEVELOP OVER PUERTO RICO THIS AFTERNOON DUE TO THE OVERCAST
CONDITIONS FROM THE BOUNDARY TO OUR NORTH PUSHING TOWARD THE AREA
AND ADDING TO THE CONVERGENCE...BUT THAT CONVECTION WAS BEGINNING
TO FORM OVER THE NORTHEAST QUARTER OF THE MAIN ISLAND. BETTER
MOISTURE WILL CROSS THROUGH PUERTO RICO TONIGHT...AND THE U.S.
VIRGIN ISLANDS ON MONDAY. BECAUSE OF ANTECEDENT RAINFALL...HIGH
PRECIPITABLE WATER AND THE HIGH PROBABILITY OF HEAVY SHOWERS AND
THUNDERSTORMS TONIGHT AND MONDAY...A FLASH FLOOD WATCH REMAINS IN
EFFECT THROUGH TUESDAY AFTERNOON.

AT THIS TIME BOTH THE GFS AND THE ECMWF BRING A TROUGH ACROSS
PUERTO RICO AND THE U.S. VIRGIN ISLANDS MONDAY NIGHT. THIS TROUGH
WILL CARRY COPIOUS MOISTURE BOTH AHEAD AND BEHIND IT THAT WILL
CONTINUE TO AGGRAVATE THE FLOODING CONDITIONS ACROSS THE AREA AND
AN INCREASE IN THE SOUTHERLY WINDS. AFTER TUESDAY NIGHT MOISTURE
AT ALL LEVELS BEGINS TO BREAK UP AND WE RETURN TO A MORE
CLIMATOLOGICAL SHOWER PATTERN...BUT WILL REMAIN WET AND MOSTLY
CLOUDY NEVERTHELESS.


&&

.AVIATION...
LOCAL MOUNTAIN OBSCURATION AS WELL AS MVFR CONDITIONS ARE
POSSIBLE OVER MOST OF THE TAF SITES ACROSS PR AND VI THROUGH THE
FORECAST PERIOD. VCTS AND VCSH INCLUDED FOR MOST OF THE TAF
SITES...AND -SHRA TO SHRA IS FORECAST AT LEAST BTWN 05/19Z-06/12Z.
AFTER 06/12Z...MVFR/IFR CONDITIONS ARE LIKELY FOR ALL TAF SITES IN
SHRA AND TSRA. WINDS ARE EXPECTED TO BE LIGHT AND VARIABLE FROM
THE SFC TO 10K FEET...BECOMING WESTERLY AND STRONGER ABOVE.

&&

.MARINE...CURRENT MARINE CONDITIONS ARE RELATIVELY TRANQUIL AND
WILL REMAIN SO WHILE THE LOW PRESSURE CONTINUES TO THE WEST.
HOWEVER MODELS HAVE BEEN TRYING TO INTRODUCE 15 TO 25 KNOT WINDS
OVER THE EASTERN PORTION OF THE FORECAST AREA AS THE TROUGH
MENTIONED ABOVE CROSSES THROUGH. HAVE LIMITED WINDS TO 15 OR 16
KNOTS SUSTAINED BUT GUSTS IN THUNDERSTORMS WILL BE HIGHER. IN THE
UNLIKELY EVENT THAT THE TROUGH SPAWNS A TROPICAL STORM AS THE GFS
HAS WANTED TO FORECAST WINDS AND SEAS WILL BE HIGHER AND WILL HAVE
TO AMEND THE FORECAST.
