What the National Weather Service wrote

A mudslide was reported near road PR-985 and Quebrada Fajardo, close to a head start.

The wider storm

An approaching frontal boundary, along with patchy moisture reaching the area, and increased instability due to a developing low north of the islands, resulted in the formation of areas of showers and thunderstorms. These storms resulted in several reports of flooding, mudslides, and even a funnel cloud.

Began near Fajardo (18.3350, -65.6761).
