What the National Weather Service wrote

A social media user reported flooding along Road PR-604, in direction to San Jose, Los Rabanos. The road was impassable.

The wider storm

The combination of an approaching trough, increasing moisture from the Caribbean, a light southeast wind flow and local effects resulted in several active days across Puerto Rico. These factors enhanced the afternoon showers and thunderstorms for a few days. Additionally, the soils remained saturated from the rains in September, so several mudslides and flooding reports were received.

Began near Manati (18.4522, -66.4831).
