The wider storm

Tropical Cyclone Dorian affected the area on August 28th-29th. Dorian was upgraded from a tropical storm to a minimal category 1 hurricane during the afternoon of the 28th as the center of the storm moved across the USVI. Portions of the western eyewall affected Culebra with rainbands extending into the eastern half of Puerto Rico.

On August 29th, as Dorian moved northward away from the local area, external bands associated with storm resulted in heavy shower and strong thunderstorm activity across the southern and eastern half of Puerto Rico during the late morning into the afternoon hours, resulting in flash flooding.

Began near Cayey (18.1029, -66.1846).
