Puerto Rico radar loop

Shows that the bg convection area is north and northwest of PR.But no hint of a circulation there.By the way Puerto Rico was not affected by the massive flooding that was feared yesterday as the majority of the rain stayed offshore but anyway some bands of thunderstorms made it into the island and we had some totals of between 2-4 inches in portions of the island last night.Also there was a big display of lighting in the San Juan metro area that was beautiful.

Luis - glad to hear you did not get too much rain. The system will need to be watched to see what affect it will have on the U.S.
