There is a moderate risk of rip currents for the beaches from northwest to northeastern Puerto Rico, Culebra and the USVI today, the National Weather Service said.

Moderate to heavy showers are expected today, once again, across sections of central and western Puerto Rico, according to the NWS.

“Therefore, there is an Elevated Flooding Risk across these areas in the afternoon hours,” the NWS said on X.
