AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE SAN JUAN PR
556 AM AST TUE MAR 8 2016

.SYNOPSIS...WEAK FRONTAL BOUNDARY WILL CONTINUE TO MOVE SOUTH
ACROSS THE OFFSHORE CARIBBEAN SEA AND THE ANEGADA PASSAGE TODAY.
STRONG SURFACE HIGH PRESSURE WILL BUILD AND HOLD ACROSS THE
WESTERN ATLANTIC FOR THE NEXT SEVERAL DAYS. MID TO UPPER RIDGE
WILL BUILD FROM THE WEST ACROSS THE CARIBBEAN BASIN AND CONTINUE
THRU THE FCST PERIOD. BREEZY TRADE WINDS AND FAIR WEATHER
CONDITIONS EXPECTED FOR THE REST OF THE WEEK.

&&

.DISCUSSION...PASSING SHOWERS EMBEDDED ON NORTHERLY WIND FLOW
REACHED MAINLY THE COASTAL AREAS OF NORTHERN PR AND SOME SECTIONS
OF THE INTERIOR. RAIN GAGES REPORTED MAX AMOUNTS OF AROUND A
QUARTER OF AN INCH ACROSS AGUAS BUENAS AND CANOVANAS. FOR THE REST
OF THE DAY...SHOWERS SHOULD CONTINUE ACROSS THE SAME AREAS OF THE
NORTHERN HALF OF PR AND FROM TIME TO TIME ACROSS THE USVI. AS THE
DAY PROGRESSES...A DIRER MID TO UPPER LEVEL AIR MASS WILL FILTER
OVER THE FORECAST AREAS AS STRONG CAP INVERSION ESTABLISHES ABV
850MB. HOWEVER...SOME DIURNAL AFTERNOON INDUCED SHOWERS CAN STILL
DEVELOP OVER AND SOUTH OF THE CORDILLERA.

THE STRONG SURFACE HIGH PRESSURE BUILDING ACROSS THE WESTERN
ATLANTIC WILL CONTINUE TO PUSH THE FRONTAL BOUNDARY FURTHER SOUTH
ACROSS THE OFFSHORE CARIBBEAN WATERS AND ANEGADA PASSAGE THROUGH
LATE TONIGHT. FOR THE NEXT SEVERAL DAYS...BREEZY CONDITIONS FROM
THE NORTH AND TRADE WIND SHOWERS WILL LIKELY PREVAIL EACH DAY WITH
LIMITED...IF ANY...DIURNAL INDUCED AFTERNOON SHOWERS DEVELOPING
OVER THE INTERIOR AND SOUTH SECTIONS OF THE ISLANDS.

&&

.AVIATION...ALTHOUGH FRONTAL BOUNDARY CROSSED THE ISLANDS...
NORTHERLY FLOW WILL CONTINUE TO PUSH -SHRA OVER THE FLYING AREA
THROUGH AT LEAST 08/18Z. THIS WILL RESULT IN MVFR CEILING WITH
PASSING-SHRA AND MOUNTAIN OBSCURATIONS ALONG THE NORTHERN SLOPES.
CONDS WILL IMPROVE AFT 08/18Z...WHEN VFR CONDS WILL PREVAIL
EVERYWHERE. NNE WINDS OF 15-25 KT WITH GUSTS AROUND 30 KT LIKELY
THRU THE FORECAST PERIOD

&&

.MARINE...HAZARDOUS SEAS WILL CONTINUE ACROSS MUCH OF THE LOCAL
WATERS...AS NORTHERLY SWELL SLOWLY SUBSIDE AND WIND GENERATED
SEAS BETWEEN 6-10 FEET PREVAIL FOR MUCH OF THE WEEK. SMALL CRAFT
ADVISORIES ARE IN EFFECT FOR ALL LOCAL WATERS EXCEPT IN THE NEAR
SHORE CARIBBEAN WATERS. HOWEVER...NORTH TO NORTHEAST WINDS AROUND
20 KNOTS WITH HIGHER GUSTS ARE EXPECTED ACROSS ALL LOCAL WATERS
THROUGH AT LEAST THURSDAY. HIGH RISK OF RIP CURRENTS LIKELY TO
CONTINUE ACROSS THE NORTH AND EAST FACING BEACHES OF THE ISLANDS
THRU THE END OF THE WEEK.

.SYNOPSIS...MID TO UPPER LEVEL TROUGH OVERHEAD WILL CONTINUE TO
SHIFT EAST AND SOUTH OF THE REGION THROUGH FRIDAY...WHILE AN UPPER
RIDGE FORECAST TO BUILD JUST WEST OF THE LOCAL REGION BY THE UPCOMING
WEEKEND. SURFACE HIGH PRESSURE RIDGE WILL CONTINUE TO BUILD ACROSS
THE WESTERN ATLANTIC. IT IS TO THEN SPREAD EASTWARD INTO THE CENTRAL
ATLANTIC BY FRIDAY WHILE THE REMNANTS OF AN OLD FRONTAL BOUNDARY
WILL CONTINUE TO SINK SOUTHWARDS ACROSS THE NORTHEASTERN CARIBBEAN
TODAY THROUGH THURSDAY. THIS PATTERN WILL A RESULT IN A MODERATE
TO STRONG NORTH TO NORTHEAST WIND FLOW AND A COOL AND STABLE
ADVECTIVE PATTERN.

&&

.DISCUSSION...THE BRISK NORTHERLY WINDS WILL CONTINUE TO PUSH THE
MOISTURE REMNANTS ALONG THE OLD FRONTAL BOUNDARY ACROSS THE REGION
DURING THE THE REST OF THE MORNING HOURS...AS DRIER AND STABLE AIR
WILL BEGIN TO FILTER IN ACROSS THE REGION FROM THE NORTH. HOWEVER...
DURING THE REST OF THE DAY...EXPECT SUFFICIENT LINGERING MOISTURE
FOR ISOLATED TO SCATTERED CONVECTION ACROSS PARTS OF THE ISLANDS.
SHOWER ACTIVITY IF ANY SHOULD BE OF SHORT DURATION WITH LITTLE
ACCUMULATIONS AS THE FAIRLY STRONG NORTHERLY WIND FLOW WILL PUSH
THE SHOWERS SOUTHWARDS AND AWAY FROM THE AREA.

A RAPID DRYING TREND AND STABLE WEATHER CONDITIONS IS EXPECTED
DURING THE REST OF THE WORK WEEK...AS THE LOW TO MID LEVEL CLOUD
COVER ASSOCIATED WITH THE REMNANTS OF THE FRONTAL BOUNDARY WILL
CONTINUE TO DIMINISH. THIS WILL RESULT IN MOSTLY FAIR WEATHER SKIES
ACROSS THE REGION AND MORE SEASONAL TEMPERATURES AND TYPICAL WEATHER
PATTERN. SHOWER ACTIVITY ACROSS THE ISLANDS DURING THE NEXT SEVERAL
DAYS...SHOULD BE FOCUSED MAINLY OVER THE COASTAL WATERS AND ALONG
PORTIONS OF THE NORTH COASTAL SECTIONS DURING THE EARLY MORNING
HOURS...FOLLOWED BY ISOLATED STREAMER-LIKE AFTERNOON CONVECTION
MAINLY ACROSS PARTS OF THE INTERIOR AND SOUTHERN SECTIONS OF PUERTO
RICO. MOSTLY FAIR WEATHER SKIES AND BREEZY CONDITIONS SHOULD PREVAIL
ELSEWHERE DURING THE REST OF THE WEEK.

.AVIATION...BRIEF PERIODS OF MVFR CONDITIONS IN -RA ARE EXPECTED
ACROSS TIST AND TJSJ WITH CEILINGS AT ABOUT FL040-050 UNTIL 09/12Z.
WEATHER CONDITIONS EXPECTED TO IMPROVED BY 09/12Z ACROSS THE LOCAL
FLYING AREA...BUT WILL CONTINUE BREEZY ACROSS THE LOCAL TERMINALS
WITH WINDS AROUND 20KT AND GUSTY FROM THE EAST TO NE THROUGH THE
FORECAST PERIOD. TJBQ MAY OBSERVE SLIGHTLY STRONGER WINDS...
SUSTAINED AT 20KT AND GUSTY AFTER 09/15Z FROM THE ENE.

&&

.MARINE...CHOPPY TO ROUGH SEAS EXPECTED TO CONTINUE ACROSS THE
LOCAL WATERS AND PASSAGES THROUGH AT LEAST THURSDAY DUE TO WIND
GENERATED WAVES AND LONG PERIOD NORTHERLY SWELLS. SMALL CRAFT
ADVISORIES REMAIN IN EFFECT FOR MOST OF THE COASTAL WATERS.
DANGEROUS SURF CONDITIONS AND HIGH RISK OF RIP CURRENTS WILL
CONTINUE FOR ALL THE NORTHWEST THROUGH NORTHEAST FACING BEACHES OF
THE ISLANDS. PLEASE REFER TO THE LATEST COASTAL WATERS FORECAST...

BUILD JUST WEST OF THE REGION BY THE UPCOMING WEEKEND. SURFACE
HIGH PRESSURE RIDGE ACROSS THE WESTERN ATLANTIC WILL CONTINUE TO
SPREAD EASTWARD INTO THE CENTRAL ATLANTIC BY FRIDAY AND INTO THE
WEEKEND. THIS WILL HELP TO MAINTAIN A FAIRLY TIGHT LOCAL PRESSURE
GRADIENT AND A STRONG TO MODERATE NORTH TO NORTHEASTERLY WIND FLOW.

&&

.DISCUSSION...THE DOMINANT NORTHERLY WINDS WILL CONTINUE TO BRING
COOL AND STABLE CONDITIONS ACROSS THE REGION ALONG WITH OCCASIONAL
PATCHES OF SHALLOW LOW LEVEL MOISTURE. A FEW LIGHT TO MODERATE
SHOWERS MAY ACCOMPANY SOME OF THIS LOW LEVEL CLOUDINESS DURING THE
EARLY MORNING HOURS BUT EXPECT DIMINISHING CLOUD COVER AND LESSER
SHOWER ACTIVITY ALONG THE NORTH COASTAL AREAS BY LATE MORNING AND
INTO THE AFTERNOON HOURS. DURING THE REST OF THE DAY EXPECT LIMITED
SHOWER ACTIVITY ACROSS THE REGION...WITH SHOWER ACTIVITY IF ANY
FOCUSED MAINLY ACROSS PARTS OF THE INTERIOR AND SOUTHERN SLOPES OF
PUERTO RICO. MOSTLY FAIR WEATHER SKIES EXPECTED ELSEWHERE DURING
THE REST OF THE DAY. BY LATE AFTERNOON A SURGE OF MOISTURE IN THE
PREVAILING NORTHERLY WINDS WILL BRING AN INCREASE IN LOW TO MID
LEVEL CLOUDINESS ACROSS THE REGION. HOWEVER...SO FAR DO NOT EXPECT
ANY SIGNIFICANT SHOWER ACTIVITY ASSOCIATED WITH THIS AS THE REGION
WILL REMAIN ON THE SUBSIDENCE SIDE OF THE UPPER TROUGH.

A CONTINUED DRYING TREND AND STABLE WEATHER CONDITIONS EXPECTED
DURING THE REST OF THE WEEK...AS LOW TO MID LEVEL CLOUDINESS AND
MOISTURE ADVECTION WILL GRADUALLY DIMINISH. THIS WILL RESULT IN
MOSTLY FAIR WEATHER SKIES ACROSS THE REGION AND PLEASANT DAYTIME
AND OVERNIGHT TEMPERATURES. FOR THE NEXT SEVERAL DAYS...SHOWERS
ACTIVITY ACROSS THE ISLANDS IF ANY SHOULD BE FOCUSED MAINLY OVER
THE COASTAL WATERS AND ALONG PORTIONS OF THE NORTH COASTAL SECTIONS
DURING THE EARLY MORNING HOURS. THIS WILL BE FOLLOWED BY MOSTLY
ISOLATED CONVECTION DURING THE AFTERNOON ACROSS PARTS OF THE INTERIOR

SPREADING ACROSS THE REGION. THIS WILL PLACE THE REGION ON THE
SUBSIDENCE OF THE DEPARTING UPPER TROUGH. SURFACE HIGH PRESSURE
SPREADING EASTWARD ACROSS THE WESTERN AND CENTRAL ATLANTIC WILL
MAINTAIN A FAIRLY TIGHT PRESSURE GRADIENT ACROSS THE FORECAST AREA
TODAY THROUGH EARLY SATURDAY. BY SUNDAY...THE GRADIENT IS TO THEN
LOOSEN AND WINDS ARE TO BECOME MORE EASTERLY. THIS IN TURN WILL RESULT
IN DIMINISHING EASTERLY TRADE WINDS.

&&

.DISCUSSION...DURING THE EARLY MORNING...OCCASIONAL SHOWER CONTINUED
TO MOVE ONSHORE OVER THE NORTHERN HALF OF PUERTO RICO...AS WELL AS
OVER PARTS OF CULEBRA...VIEQUES AND THE U.S. VIRGIN ISLANDS. RAINFALL
SO FAR HAS BEEN OF LIGHT TO MODERATE INTENSITY WITH NO SIGNIFICANT

554 AM AST MON MAR 14 2016

.SYNOPSIS...AT UPPER LEVELS...A WEAK RIDGE WILL FLATTEN OUT AS IT
PASSES OVER THE LOCAL AREA TONIGHT. DURING THE REST OF THE WEEK A
RIDGE BUILDS OVER THE WESTERN CARIBBEAN AND A WEAK TROUGH DIGS
INTO THE TROPICAL WESTERN ATLANTIC PULLING NORTHWEST FLOW OVER THE
AREA. THE RIDGE BROADENS OVER THE CENTRAL CARIBBEAN OVER THE
WEEKEND.

AT MID LEVELS...HIGH PRESSURE CONTINUES OVER THE WESTERN CARIBBEAN
UNTIL THURSDAY WHEN IT SPREADS INTO THE CENTRAL CARIBBEAN FRIDAY
THROUGH SUNDAY. BY TUESDAY OF THE FOLLOWING WEEK THE HIGH IS
EXPECTED TO PASS SOUTH OF PUERTO RICO. MOISTURE AT MID LEVELS
INCREASES OVERNIGHT MONDAY AND THEN DIMINISHES ON WEDNESDAY.
ALMOST NO MOISTURE IS PRESENT LATE THIS WEEK INTO EARLY NEXT
WEEK.

AT LOWER LEVELS...MODERATE HIGH PRESSURE REMAINS NORTH OF THE
FORECAST AREA THROUGH THE WEEK...WITH LOW PRESSURE REMAINING IN
THE SOUTHWEST CARIBBEAN. A WEAK BOUNDARY PASSES THROUGH THE AREA
ON WEDNESDAY...BRINING IN DRIER AIR...WITH BETTER MOISTURE NOT
RETURNING UNTIL FRIDAY.

&&

.DISCUSSION...SHALLOW SHOWERS NEARLY DISAPPEARED OVERNIGHT FROM
PUERTO RICO AND THE U.S. VIRGIN ISLANDS...BUT INCREASED DURING
THE MORNING HOURS BEFORE SUNRISE IN THE CARIBBEAN AND THE ATLANTIC
WATERS. SOME SHOWERS BEGAN MOVING ONTO THE SOUTHEAST COAST OF
PUERTO RICO AROUND 4 AM AST WITH MINOR ACCUMULATIONS. THE MIMIC
PRODUCT SHOWS MOISTURE STREAMING IN ACROSS SAINT CROIX AND FURTHER
SOUTH...AND THIS WILL SPREAD A LITTLE TO THE NORTH DURING THE DAY
GENERATING GOOD CHANCES FOR SHOWERS TODAY IN WESTERN PUERTO RICO.
MOISTURE WILL CONTINUE TO STREAM IN OVER PUERTO RICO...AFFECTING
THE WINDWARD SLOPES OVERNIGHT TONIGHT. SHOWERS ARE EXPECTED
THERE...BUT WILL FIND IT DIFFICULT TO MOVE DEEP INTO THE ISLAND
OVERNIGHT. SHOWERS WILL REFORM OVER WESTERN PUERTO RICO DURING
THE AFTERNOON ON TUESDAY AS WELL. DRYING OCCURS ON WEDNESDAY AND
SHOWERS WILL DIMINISH IN COVERAGE AND ACCUMULATIONS. SHOWERS THEN
RETURN ON FRIDAY THROUGH THE WEEKEND AS ANOTHER AREA OF LOW LEVEL
MOISTURE MOVES THROUGH.

&&

.AVIATION...TRADE WIND SHOWERS WILL AFFECT THE TERMINALS OF
TJSJ/TIST/TISX/TJPS AND COULD CREATE BRIEF MVFR CONDS AT TIMES THRU
THIS MORNING. BKN CEILINGS BETWEEN 030/060 CAN BE EXPECTED. FROM
14/16Z-22Z...SEA BREEZE INDUCED SHOWERS ARE EXPECTED TO DEVELOP
ONCE AGAIN OVER THE INTERIOR AND WESTERN PR...IMPACTING MAINLY THE
FLYING AREA OF TJMZ/TJBQ AND VCNTY OF TJSJ. EXPECT...SURFACE EAST
WINDS AT LESS THAN 8 KT INCREASING AFT 14/12Z AT 10 TO 15 WITH
HIGHER GUSTS IN AND NEAR SHRA ACTIVITY.

450 AM AST TUE MAR 15 2016

.SYNOPSIS...AT MID AND UPPER LEVELS...A BROAD HIGH PRESSURE WILL
DRIFT OVER THE LOCAL AREA ON FRIDAY AND CONTINUE INTO THE TROPICAL
ATLANTIC NEXT WEEK. MID LEVEL MOISTURE ENDS WEDNESDAY NIGHT.

AT LOWER LEVELS...MODEST HIGH PRESSURE CONTINUES NORTH OF THE
AREA. A WEAK COLD FRONT MOVES TOWARD THE AREA EARLY NEXT
WEEK...THEN HIGH PRESSURE FILLS IN BEHIND IT.

&&

.DISCUSSION...THE BOUNDARY OF THE DRIER AIR AND THE AIR MASS OVER
US LIES JUST TO THE NORTH OF PUERTO RICO AND THE U.S. VIRGIN
ISLANDS THIS MORNING...WITH SHOWERS SOUTHWEST OF VIEQUES AND OVER
MUCH OF THE CARIBBEAN SEA IN THE FORECAST AREA. ONLY A FEW SHOWERS
WERE MOVING IN THE LOCAL WATERS NORTH OF PUERTO RICO. THE GFS
SHOWS PRECIPITABLE WATER ONLY SLIGHTLY LOWER THAN YESTERDAY...BUT
THEN DROPPING OFF TONIGHT THROUGH FRIDAY MORNING. THE MIMIC
PRODUCT WAS SHOWING THE BACK EDGE OF THE MOISTURE REACHING PUERTO
RICO TODAY BY EXTRAPOLATION...HOWEVER LARGE GAPS IN THE DATA HAVE
OPENED UP AND IT IS NOT POSSIBLE TO TELL IF THE BOUNDARY HAS
STALLED OR NOT. IT SEEMS REASONABLE THAT DRYING WILL CONTINUE OVER
EASTERN PUERTO RICO AND THE U.S. VIRGIN ISLANDS...BUT THAT SHOWERS
WILL DEVELOP AGAIN ALONG THE WESTERN HALF OF THE CORDILLERA
CENTRAL AND IN WESTERN PUERTO RICO TODAY AND PROBABLY TOMORROW TO
A LESSER EXTENT. AMOUNTS COULD BE OVER ONE INCH IN THE MOST
FAVORED LOCATIONS TODAY. ON WEDNESDAY THE LOWER LEVEL WINDS TURN
MORE NORTHERLY AND SHOULD HELP ESCORT THE BETTER MOISTURE OUT OF
THE AREA. SURFACE WINDS...EVEN UP THROUGH 925 MB...HOWEVER...WILL
REMAIN ALMOST EASTERLY HOLDING MOISTURE AT THE LOWEST LEVELS...OVER
THE AREA FOR A LITTLE WHILE LONGER. WINDS BECOME MORE
SOUTHEASTERLY LATE IN THE WEEK AND OVER THE WEEKEND AND MOS
GUIDANCE IS BRINGING IN WARMER TEMPERATURES...BUT SO FAR THIS HAS
BEEN PREMATURE. NEVERTHELESS AS CLOUDS THIN TEMPERATURES SHOULD
BEGIN TO WARM SLIGHTLY AND THE SOUTHERLY COMPONENT LATE IN THE
WEEK SHOULD BRING SAN JUAN MID TO UPPER 80S BY THE WEEKEND.
TEMPERATURES SHOULD WARM UNTIL MID WEEK NEXT WEEK. NO MAJOR
FEATURES ARE EXPECTED. THE SOUNDING IS STILL TOO STABLE FOR
THUNDERSTORMS WITH A CAP PERSISTING BETWEEN 700 AND 550 MB.

&&

.AVIATION...MAINLY VFR CONDITIONS ARE EXPECTED TO PREVAIL
ACROSS MOST TAF SITES THROUGH AT LEAST 15/16Z. MOUNTAIN TOP
OBSCURATIONS AND TEMPO MVFR LIKELY WITH THE AFTERNOON
SHOWERS...MAINLY OVER WESTERN INTERIOR AND WEST SECTIONS OF PUERTO
RICO. LOW LEVEL WINDS WILL BE MAINLY EAST AT 10 TO 15 KTS.

&&

.MARINE...A WEAK SWELL IS MOVING THROUGH THE OUTER BUOY AND WILL
BRING A HIGH RISK OF RIP CURRENTS TO THE NORTHERN BEACHES OF
PUERTO RICO AND CULEBRA. THIS SWELL WILL INCREASE THROUGH FRIDAY.
UNDER WEAKER WINDS HOWEVER SEAS WILL ONLY INCREASE A LITTLE TODAY
AND TONIGHT AND THEN DIMINISH THROUGH WEDNESDAY EVENING BEFORE
RISING AGAIN ON FRIDAY. CONDITIONS IN BOTH THE ATLANTIC AND
CARIBBEAN ARE EXPECTED TO REMAIN BELOW SMALL CRAFT ADVISORY
CRITERIA.

HIGH WILL SHIFT TO THE EASTERN CARIBBEAN BY FRIDAY. THE SAME HIGH
WILL MOVE TO THE LEEWARD ISLANDS DURING THE UPCOMING WEEK.

AT LOWER LEVELS...WEAK HIGH PRESSURE EXTENDS ACROSS THE ATLANTIC
JUST NORTH OF THE LOCAL AREA. A TROUGH WILL DIG NORTH INTO FLORIDA
BY SATURDAY AND FORM A STRONG LOW PRESSURE IN THE WESTERN ATLANTIC
BY SUNDAY NIGHT TRAILING A FRONT THAT WILL DIP DOWN TO ABOUT 25
DEGREES NORTH ON WEDNESDAY BEFORE RETREATING AGAIN. HIGH PRESSURE
THEN BUILDS INTO THE WESTERN ATLANTIC ON WEDNESDAY.

&&

.DISCUSSION...LINES OF SHOWERS JUST NORTH OF PUERTO RICO AND
EXTENDING ACROSS THE MONA PASSAGE HINTED OF A WEAK BOUNDARY JUST
SOUTH OF THE AREA THAT IS DISSIPATING. BY DAWN VERY FEW SMALL
SHOWERS WERE SEEN ON NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE DOPPLER RADAR.
SATELLITE IMAGERY SHOWED SOME CLOUDS OVER THE AREA AND ACROSS THE
SOUTHERN PORTION OF HISPANIOLA. THESE ARE EXPECTED TO PROVIDE THE
MOISTURE NECESSARY FOR THE FORMATION OF AFTERNOON SHOWERS IN
WESTERN PUERTO RICO. SINCE WINDS DID NOT GAIN ANY SOUTHERLY
COMPONENT AS EXPECTED YESTERDAY...THE FOCUS OF THE SHOWERS IS
EXPECTED TO BE MORE IN THE CENTRAL PORTION OF WESTERN PUERTO RICO.
SHOWERS ARE EXPECTED TO REMAIN QUITE ISOLATED OVER THE U.S.
VIRGIN ISLANDS.

DRIER AIR MOVES INTO THE AREA FROM THE NORTH ON THURSDAY...BUT
THE GFS STILL INDICATES SOME SHOWERS FORMING OVER SOUTHWESTERN
PUERTO RICO. THIS TIME THE NORTHERLY COMPONENT ACTUALLY GAINS
STRENGTH...FORCING SHOWERS AWAY FROM THE NORTHERN COAST. THE
DRIEST CONDITIONS ARE STILL EXPECTED OVERNIGHT THURSDAY NIGHT.
PRECIPITABLE WATER THEN GAINS UNSTEADILY THROUGH LATE NEXT
WEEK...WITH SWINGS OF TWO TENTHS OF AN INCH UNTIL IT REACHES 1.5
INCHES ON WEDNESDAY FROM A LOW OF AROUND 0.8 INCHES ON FRIDAY.
MOISTURE BECOMES QUITE SHALLOW OVER THE WEEKEND SO STILL DO NOT
SEE THUNDERSTORM DEVELOPMENT AS A POSSIBILITY DURING THE NEXT 7
DAYS

&&

.AVIATION...MAINLY VFR CONDS EXPECTED FOR THE NEXT 24 HOURS ACROSS
MUCH OF THE TERMINALS. SHRA INDUCED FROM DIURNAL HEATING EXPECTED
TO DEVELOP OVER THE INTERIOR/WESTERN SECTIONS OF PR...IMPACTING
MAINLY THE FLYING AREA OF TJMZ. EAST TO NORTHEAST WINDS BLO FL050
AT 5-12 KNOTS...BCMG NORTHERLY THRU FL100...NORTHWEST ABOVE AND
INCREASING WITH HEIGHT. SEA BREEZE VARIATIONS AFTER 13Z.

&&

.MARINE...SEAS WILL DIMINISH SLIGHTLY DURING THE DAY BUT WILL THEN
INCREASE THROUGH FRIDAY WITH A LONG PERIOD SWELL FROM THE NORTH
NORTHEAST. AT THIS TIME SMALL CRAFT ADVISORIES ARE NOT
ANTICIPATED DURING THE NEXT 7 DAYS...BUT A HIGH RISK OF RIP
CURRENTS WILL RETURN WHEN THIS SWELL...FORECAST TO BE AROUND 14
SECONDS...ARRIVES ON THE COASTS OF PUERTO RICO AND SAINT THOMAS
LATER TONIGHT.

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE SAN JUAN PR
520 AM AST THU MAR 17 2016

.SYNOPSIS...AT UPPER LEVELS...THE AXIS OF A BROAD RIDGE WILL MOVE
ACROSS THE LOCAL AREA FRIDAY NIGHT AND BUILD OVER MUCH OF THE
CENTRAL AND EASTERN CARIBBEAN THROUGH MID WEEK NEXT WEEK.

AT MID LEVELS...BEGINNING THIS WEEKEND HIGH PRESSURE OVER THE
CARIBBEAN SEA WILL EXTEND NORTHEAST INTO THE AREA WHERE THE TROUGH
IS NOW OVER THE WESTERN TROPICAL ATLANTIC. HIGH PRESSURE WILL
DOMINATE THE CARIBBEAN SEA THROUGH AT LEAST THE END OF NEXT WEEK.
LITTLE OR NO MOISTURE WILL BE SEEN IN THE MID LEVELS THROUGH THE
NEXT 10 DAYS.

AT LOWER LEVELS...MODERATE HIGH PRESSURE CONTINUES OVER THE
ATLANTIC NORTH OF PUERTO RICO AND THE U.S. VIRGIN ISLANDS THROUGH
TUESDAY...SHUNTING THE LOW THAT DEVELOPS OFF THE COAST OF NORTH
CAROLINA AND VIRGINIA ON SATURDAY NIGHT TOWARD THE NORTHEAST AND
AWAY FROM THE AREA WHICH WILL ALLOW WINDS TO TURN TO THE
SOUTHEAST OVER THE WEEKEND. HIGH PRESSURE WILL MOVE BACK INTO THE
WESTERN ATLANTIC ON TUESDAY AND STRENGTHEN LOCAL GRADIENTS TO
FAVOR MORE EASTERLY TRADE WINDS...BUT AS IT COALESCES WITH THE
OTHER HIGH IN THE EASTERN ATLANTIC INTO ONE LARGE HIGH NORTHEAST
OF THE AREA...WINDS WILL BECOME MORE SOUTHEASTERLY AGAIN TOWARD
THE END OF NEXT WEEK.

&&

.DISCUSSION...FEW SHOWERS WERE SEEN IN THE LATER PART OF THE NIGHT
OVER THE WATERS AROUND PUERTO RICO AND THE U.S. VIRGIN ISLANDS AND
NONE WERE OBSERVED OVER LAND AS SKIES REMAINED MOSTLY CLEAR. DRIER
AIR FROM THE NORTHEAST WILL CONTINUE TO INCREASE OVER THE AREA
TODAY AND FRIDAY. HIGH PRESSURE AT MID LEVELS WILL MAINTAIN A
RELATIVELY STRONG CAP AROUND 700 MB THAT WILL KEEP SHOWER ACTIVITY
LIMITED THROUGH THE EARLY PART OF NEXT WEEK. PATCHES OF LOW LEVEL
MOISTURE RETURN AT 850 MB ONLY AFTER WINDS AT THAT LEVEL TURN MORE
SOUTHEASTERLY ON SATURDAY. SHALLOW SHOWERS WILL THEN RETURN AND
INCREASE GRADUALLY THROUGH NEXT WEEK. GOOD HEATING IN THE WESTERN
PORTIONS OF PUERTO RICO WILL ALSO TRIGGER AFTERNOON SHOWERS FROM
CONVERGENCE AT THE LOWEST LEVELS. THESE SHOWER WILL FAVOR WEST
CENTRAL PUERTO RICO TODAY AND TOMORROW...BUT SHOULD BEGIN TO SHIFT
TO NORTHWEST PUERTO RICO BY SATURDAY. WHEN WINDS SHIFT TO THE EAST
SOUTHEAST...EXPECT TEMPERATURES ON THE NORTH CENTRAL AND NORTHEAST
COASTS TO RISE INTO THE UPPER 80S IN SOME PLACES. THE GFS
INDICATES 1000-850 MB THICKNESS LEVELS RISING AFTER TOMORROW TO
PEAK ON MONDAY AFTERNOON. SO MONDAY MAY EVEN SEE SOME MAXIMUM
TEMPERATURES IN THE LOWER 90S NEAR THE NORTH COAST AROUND THE
GREATER METROPOLITAN AREA OF SAN JUAN. TEMPERATURES SHOULD REMAIN
JUST SLIGHTLY ABOVE NORMAL IN THE U.S. VIRGIN ISLANDS.

&&

.AVIATION...VFR CONDS EXPECTED AT ALL TAF SITES THRU THE FORECAST
PERIOD. ISOLD TO SCT SHOWERS MAY DEVELOP NEAR TJPS AND TJMZ AFT
17/18Z...LEADING TO MOUNTAIN OBSCURATIONS OVER THE WESTERN
INTERIOR OF PR. WINDS BECOMING E TO ENE AT 10 TO 15 KT AFT 17/13Z
WITH SOME SEA BREEZE INFLUENCES. WEST NORTHWEST WINDS ARE EXPECTED
TO EXCEED 80 KNOTS BETWEEN FL380 AND FL470.

&&

.MARINE...SEAS WILL INCREASE DURING THE DAY AS LONG PERIOD NORTH
NORTHEAST SWELL OF 13 TO 14 SECONDS MOVES INTO THE AREA. SEAS
WILL GRADUALLY DIMINISH FROM 7 FEET AFTER FRIDAY WITH A MINIMUM ON
MONDAY AND MONDAY NIGHT. THERE IS A HIGH RISK OF RIP CURRENTS
TODAY THROUGH FRIDAY.

&&

.DISCUSSION...A FEW SHOWERS OVER THE MONA PASSAGE CROSSED OVER

MONA ISLAND EARLY THIS MORNING...BUT OTHERWISE NO SIGNIFICANT

PRECIPITATION WAS OBSERVED. WINDS WILL BEGIN TO SHIFT TO THE EAST

TODAY AND TO THE EAST SOUTHEAST TONIGHT AND TOMORROW SO THAT THE

NORTH COASTS OF PUERTO RICO WILL BEGIN TO SEE A FEW DEGREES OF

WARMING. PRECIPITABLE WATER IS TO REACH A MINIMUM TOMORROW MORNING

AND THEN SLOWLY RISE UNTIL THE FOLLOWING WEEKEND. WINDS WILL ALSO

INCREASE DURING THE WEEK NEXT WEEK ALTHOUGH MOST LOWER LEVEL WINDS

WILL REMAIN FROM THE EAST SOUTHEAST. SHOWERS WILL ALSO

GRADUALLY INCREASE IN THE TYPICAL DIURNAL PATTERN DURING THE NEXT

7 DAYS...BUT NO MAJOR FEATURES ARE EXPECTED DURING THE NEXT 8-10

DAYS.

.SYNOPSIS...MID TO UPPER LEVEL HIGH PRESSURE RIDGE WILL CONTINUE
TO DOMINATE THE OVERALL WEATHER PATTERN ACROSS THE REGION AT
LEAST UNTIL WEDNESDAY. THIS WILL THEREFORE MAINTAIN A FAIRLY
STRONG CAP INVERSION ACROSS THE REGION AND SUPPRESS CONVECTION. IN
ADDITION...LOW LEVEL MOISTURE ADVECTION WILL CONTINUE TO BE
LIMITED AND THEREFORE MAINTAIN A FAIRLY WARM AND DRY AIR MASS WHICH
WILL SPREAD ACROSS THE FORECAST AREA. MODERATE SOUTHEASTERLY TRADE
WINDS WILL PREVAIL AS SURFACE HIGH PRESSURE WILL REMAIN ANCHORED
ACROSS THE NORTHEASTERN ATLANTIC THROUGH TUESDAY. THEREAFTER...IT
WILL BE REINFORCED BY YET ANOTHER AREA OF HIGH PRESSURE WHICH
WILL ENTER THE SOUTHWEST ATLANTIC ON WEDNESDAY. THIS WILL RESULT
IN A SLIGHT TIGHTENING OF THE LOCAL PRESSURE GRADIENT AND
INCREASING EASTERLY TRADE WINDS.

&&

.DISCUSSION...MOSTLY SUNNY TO PARTLY CLOUDY SKIES WILL PREVAIL DURING
THE REST OF THE MORNING WITH ONLY A FEW LIGHT SHOWERS EXPECTED TO
BRUSH PARTS OF THE COASTAL AREAS OF SOME OF THE ISLANDS. BY LATE MORNING...
SKIES ARE TO BECOME MOSTLY SUNNY ACROSS THE REGION AS MOSTLY FAIR WEATHER
SKIES WILL PREVAIL IN MOST AREAS. EXPECT A SLIGHT INCREASE IN CLOUDS

TO AROUND 15 MPH WITH HIGHER GUSTS DURING THE AFTERNOON.

A CONTINUED DRYING TREND AND STABLE WEATHER CONDITIONS EXPECTED
DURING MOST OF THE WEEK AS LOW TO MID LEVEL MOISTURE ADVECTION
WILL CONTINUE TO DIMINISH ACROSS THE REGION. THIS WILL RESULT IN
MOSTLY FAIR WEATHER SKIES AND OVERALL PLEASANT WEATHER CONDITIONS
FOR THE HOLIDAY WEEK. SLIGHTLY WARMER THAN NORMAL CONDITIONS CAN
BE EXPECTED DUE TO THE PREVAILING SOUTHERLY LOW LEVEL WIND FLOW AT
LEAST THROUGH WEDNESDAY. DURING THE LATTER PORTION OF THE
WEEK...WINDS ARE TO BECOME MORE EASTERLY AND THIS IN TURN SHOULD
GRADUAL BRING A RETURN OF THE NEAR NORMAL TEMPERATURES.

&&

.AVIATION...VFR CONDITIONS EXPECTED THROUGH THE FORECAST PERIOD.
VCSH POSSIBLE FOR TJBQ AND TJMZ BETWEEN 21/18Z-21/22Z. WINDS

REPORT OVERALL SEAS OF LESS THAN 5 FEET AND WINDS OF 10 TO 15
KNOTS THIS MORNING. EXPECT SEAS TO REMAIN AT 5 FEET OR LESS BUT
EAST SOUTHEAST TRADE WINDS WILL CONTINUE TO INCREASE TO 15 TO 20
KNOTS DURING THE DAY WITH OCCASIONALLY HIGHER GUST. FOR THIS
REASON SMALL CRAFT SHOULD EXERCISE CAUTION IN SOME AREAS. PLEASE
REFER TO THE LATEST COASTAL WATERS FORECAST ISSUED BY WFO SAN JUAN

534 AM AST TUE MAR 22 2016

.SYNOPSIS...MID TO UPPER LEVEL HIGH PRESSURE RIDGE WILL HOLD ACROSS
THE REGION THROUGH WEDNESDAY...HEN GRADUALLY ERODE AND FLATTEN
OVERHEAD...AS THE POLAR TROUGH MOVES ACROSS THE NORTHWEST ATLANTIC
TODAY THROUGH THURSDAY. RIDGE ALOFT IS TO THEN BUILD OVERHEAD ONCE
AGAIN BY FRIDAY AND INTO THE UPCOMING WEEKEND . THE SURFACE ATLANTIC
HIGH PRESSURE RIDGE WILL TO RETROGRADE EASTWARD AS A COLD FRONT
WILL CONTINUE TO LIFT EAST NORTHEAST ACROSS THE WESTERN ATLANTIC.
ANOTHER AREA OF HIGH PRESSURE WILL ENTER THE SOUTHWEST ATLANTIC
TODAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY TO REINFORCE THE ATLANTIC RIDGE NOW ACROSS
THE NORTHEASTERN ATLANTIC.

&&

.DISCUSSION...WEAKLY INDUCED LOW LEVEL/PREFRONTAL TROUGH WILL SET
UP JUST WEST OF THE AREA AS THE ATLANTIC RIDGE RECEDES FARTHER
EAST...AND THE COLD FRONT MOVES ACROSS THE WESTERN ATLANTIC. THE
TROUGH WILL HOWEVER QUICKLY WEAKEN AS THE AFOREMENTIONED HIGH PRESSURE
BUILDS ACROSS THE SOUTHWEST ATLANTIC AND STRENGTHENS THE HIGH PRESSURE
RIDGE NORTH OF THE REGION. THIS OVERALL PATTERN WILL SUPPORT INCREASING
EASTERLY TRADE WINDS AND ALLOW FOR OCCASIONAL TRANSPORT OF SHALLOW
TRADE WIND MOISTURE ACROSS THE REGION DURING THE NEXT SEVERAL DAYS.
RECENT MODEL GUIDANCE AND PRESENT WEATHER CONDITIONS CONTINUE TO
SUGGEST NO SIGNIFICANT AMOUNTS OF MOISTURE TRANSPORT OVER THE AREA.
THERE WILL HOWEVER BE SUFFICIENT MOISTURE TO AID IN THE DEVELOPMENT
OF EARLY MORNING AND LATE EVENING PASSING SHOWERS ACROSS THE COASTAL
WATERS AND EAST SECTIONS OF THE ISLANDS. THIS WILL BE FOLLOWED BY
LIMITED AFTERNOON CONVECTION ACROSS PARTS OF THE INTERIOR AND WEST
SECTIONS OF PUERTO RICO. MOSTLY FAIR WEATHER SKIES WILL PREVAIL
ELSEWHERE FOR THE REMAINDER OF THE WORK WEEK AND INTO THE UPCOMING
WEEKEND.

&&

.AVIATION...MAINLY VFR CONDITIONS EXPECTED ACROSS ALL TERMINALS
THROUGH 22/18Z. ONLY LIGHT PASSING SHOWERS ARE EXPECTED. BETWEEN
22/18Z-22/22Z...SOME MOUNTAIN OBSCURATIONS CAN BE EXPECTED OVER
WESTERN INTERIOR AND WEST SECTIONS OF PUERTO RICO IN THE VICINITY OF
TJBQ AND TJMZ. LOW LEVEL WINDS WILL CONTINUE FROM THE SE AT 10-15
KNOTS...WITH SEA BREEZE VARIATIONS IN COASTAL AREAS.

&&

.MARINE...FAIRLY TRANQUIL SEAS OF 3 TO 5 FEET AND NOT EXPECTED TO
INCREASE SIGNIFICANTLY UNTIL LATE WEDNESDAY. A NORTHERLY SWELL OF
3 FEET OR SO WILL ARRIVE AT THE OUTER BUOY EARLY WEDNESDAY NIGHT
AND IN THE LOCAL WATERS AFTERWARD. MODERATE TO LOCALLY FRESH EASTERLY
TRADE WINDS WILL PREVAIL. SMALL CRAFT SHOULD EXERCISE ACROSS THE NEAR
SHORE WATERS AND LOCAL PASSAGES DUE TO LIGHT TO MODERATE CHOP.
