What the National Weather Service wrote
Rio Yauco went out of its banks in barrio Barinas, near the treatment plant of Yauco in PR-335. The road was impassable.
The wider storm
A moist and unstable weather pattern affected Puerto Rico from March 24 through March 28, 2026, as a mid- to upper-level trough interacted with abundant tropical moisture and favorable upper-level dynamics. Periods of heavy showers and thunderstorms developed across the island, resulting in flooding concerns, urban and small-stream flooding, and rapid rises on rivers and streams. The threat was enhanced by strong upper-level support associated with a strengthening jet stream and persistent moisture across the region.
Began near Yauco (18.0200, -66.8400).
