000 AWCA82 TJSJ 272046 CCA RWSPR PRZ001>013-280845- Weather Summary for Puerto Rico...CORRECTED National Weather Service San Juan PR 446 PM AST Fri Jan 27 2023 A mixture of sunshine and clouds persisted across the region as the remnants of a frontal boundary crossed the islands and coastal waters. Passing showers of mostly light to moderate intensity continued over parts of Puerto Rico and the adjacent islands during the afternoon. So far estimated rainfall accumulations were a half an inch or less in most areas. Winds were from the east to northeast between 12 to 15 mph with higher gusts between 20 to 25 mph. High temperatures ranged from the upper 60 to low 70s in the mountains and valleys to the low to mid 80s along the coastal areas. A gradual diminishing of cloudiness and shower activity is expected over the islands into the early evening hours, as the moisture remnants will move farther south of the islands while dissipating. However, for the overnight and early morning hours another patch of quick passing clouds and showers will reach the north and east coastal areas. This will bring another round of showers to the region. Rainfall amounts are not expected to be significant. Winds will become east to northeast at less than 10 mph as the land breeze kicks in. Low temperatures will range from the upper 50s to low 60s in the mountain and valleys to the low to mid 70s along the coastal areas. Breezy conditions with periods of sunshine and passing clouds and occasional showers can be expected on Saturday, but most of the activity will be fast moving with little accumulation expected. A northerly swell coupled with the winds of 15 to 20 knots will maintain choppy and hazardous seas between 5 to 8 feet through the weekend. Small craft advisories and precautionary statement will therefore continue for most of the local waters and passages. For beachgoers, the risk of rip currents will high for the northwest to northeast beaches of Puerto Rico and the Culebra beaches through the weekend. Rip current risk will be moderate for the Rincon beaches, some beaches in the southeast as well as in Vieques. There will be low risk for the Ponce and the surrounding beaches. $$ This product is issued around 5 AM and 5 PM each day and weather conditions may change between issuances.
