The wider storm

Higher than normal moisture content and east to southeasterly winds, combined with local and diurnal effects, led to the development of thunderstorms over the San Juan metro area on May 19th. Between 1 and 3 inches of rain were observed with this activity across Carolina and San Juan, which caused urban flooding between Isla Verde and Condado areas.

Began near Carolina (18.4407, -66.0297).
