What the National Weather Service wrote
Two persons were swept away by rip currents at Poza de las Mujeres Beach along road PR-6684.
The wider storm
Breezy easterly winds generated choppy to rough seas across the regional waters, increasing wave action along exposed beaches. As a result, life-threatening rip currents persisted along many exposed beaches in Puerto Rico and the U.S. Virgin Islands through the middle of March.
