Hydrologic Outlook
National Weather Service San Juan PR
215 PM AST Fri Aug 28 2026

...Beneficial rains from the remnants of Tropical Storm Dolly
areexpected to reach Puerto Rico and the Virgin Islands on Sunday and
Monday...

The National Hurricane Center issued the last advisory on Dolly,
located nearly 1200 miles southeast of the local islands. This
tropical wave will reach the area on Sunday and Monday.

Since the system is expected to find a hostile environment, a
widespread and long-lasting rainfall event is not anticipated.
Instead, squally weather will bring periods of moderate to locally
heavy rainfall, beginning late Sunday and stretching into Monday. In
general, we are anticipating rainfall accumulations of 1 to 3 inches,
which will be beneficial for any areas receiving the rain. Lingering
moisture from the remnants of Dolly could contribute to additional
showers developing on Tuesday. The risk of flooding is low to locally
medium. Areas with the drainage system clogged by death vegetation
debris or urbanized areas with poor drainage could experience
localized flooding.

Any rainfall will be welcome, and could bring a temporary relieve to
the ongoing severe to extreme drought plaguing Puerto Rico and the
Virgin Islands. However, the rain should not be enough to end the
drought.

At this time, the confidence in the forecast is medium, and the users
are advised to monitor the forecast in case changes are introduced.
If that the case, this product will be update accordingly.
