The National Weather Service in San Juan has issued a

  Arecibo Municipality in Puerto Rico...

  Jayuya Municipality in Puerto Rico...

  Hatillo Municipality in Puerto Rico...

  Utuado Municipality in Puerto Rico...



* Until 500 PM AST



* At 252 PM AST, Doppler radar indicated heavy rain due to 

  developing thunderstorm activity. This will cause urban and small 

  stream flooding in the advisory area. Mudslides will also be 

  possible in areas of steep terrain. 



PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS...



Turn around, don't drown when encountering flooded roads. Most flood

deaths occur in vehicles.



In hilly terrain there are hundreds of low water crossings which are

potentially dangerous in heavy rain. Do not attempt to cross flooded

roads. Find an alternate route.



A Flood Advisory means river or stream flows are elevated, or ponding

of water in urban or other areas is occurring or is imminent.
