The rains that will be felt today in Puerto Rico are associated with a tropical wave that affected the island last night, and for tomorrow at night the downpours related to Invest 92L would begin, according to the Servicio Nacional de Meteorología .
Meteorologist Ian Colón of the SNM, indicated that downpours are expected through the north and east of Puerto Rico in the morning, and in the afternoon, thunderstorm rains are expected in the interior and western Puerto Rico.

Colón indicated that between Wednesday night and Thursday it will increase the rain activity associated with Invest 92L, an atmospheric phenomenon that maintains a high probability of cyclonic development, estimated at 90% in 5 days.
Although the rain directly caused by Invest 92L will begin to be felt from Wednesday night and windy conditions are expected, it is still uncertain how the phenomenon will affect Puerto Rico, but tonight you should have a clearer picture, said Colón.
