What the National Weather Service wrote

Excessive rainfall led to flooding in the University of Puerto Rico parking lot(Area Blanca).

The wider storm

The combination of a surface trough over the eastern Caribbean and an

upper-level trough north and west of the region promoted wet and unstable conditions during the week of November 6-9. This produced showers and thunderstorms over the eastern and northern sections of Puerto Rico, including the San Juan Metro area. Urban and flash flooding was observed across these areas.

Began near Mayaguez (18.2106, -67.1423).
