Forecasters Keeping Close Watch on Tropical System

The National Weather Service in San Juan, Puerto Rico, continues to monitor a tropical system that is forecast to track northeast of the region in the coming days, and any potential impacts it may have on local conditions.

“There is substantial uncertainty, and an increase in shower and thunderstorm activity cannot be ruled out,” the NWS San Juan said in its hazardous weather outlook Monday morning.

Invest 91L, as the disturbance is currently named, has an 80 percent chance of cyclone formation in the next five days, according to the National Hurricane Center.

The broad area of low pressure was located over the central tropical Atlantic early Monday and is producing a large area of disorganized cloudiness and showers, according to the center.
