What the National Weather Service wrote

Emergency managers reported that Flooding was occurring in Sector Galateo due to Rio Grande near El Verde being out of its banks impacting PR-956, near km 0.5. The road was impassable.

The wider storm

A frontal boundary interacting with southerly flow produced a period of heavy rainfall across Puerto Rico from February 2 through February 4, 2026. Abundant moisture and an advective pattern supported widespread showers and periods of moderate to heavy rainfall across the region.

Significant rainfall amounts fell across portions of PR. These conditions resulted in urban and small-stream flooding, localized flash flooding, and minor landslides, particularly across the interior, southern, and western parts of Puerto Rico. Elevated streamflows were observed, with some rivers reaching action stage.

Began near Rio Grande (18.3700, -65.8300).
