RE: [STORMREPORTS] Islands On Alert For Winds & Rain

It appears that conditions in Puerto Rico are iffy. Rain associated to TD
Ten would effect us today and tomorrow. Forecast was downgraded from 100
percent of showers yesterday, to 70 today. We had a few showers last night,
nothing to write home about. Official rain is barely 1/4" since midnight.
Haven't seen any rain since dawn this morning. Could TD Ten have drained
some rain away? A flash flood watch is in effect, maybe not so much due to
TD Ten, but due to it AND normal daylight heating.

Breeze has picked up since Friday evening, again nothing noteworthy, as yet.
Although St. Thomas reported 24 mph and gusts to 38 mph during the night.
Forecast warns of 20 mph, gusting to 30 mph. Early morning official wind was
5 mph in San Juan.

TV Doppler imaginary showed some rain on Puerto Rico's southern coast and
over the mountains, last night; and the NWS Doppler's coverage is clearly
defined, not normal in the least. So, the rain appears to be out there, but
as of this writing, no reports of flooding.

Again, not to say that as the day wears on, this could change.
