Puerto Rico will keep feeling above-normal heat on Friday, November 13, and through the weekend, particularly along the coast, in low-lying areas, inland valleys and urban sectors, the National Weather Service (NWS) in San Juan said. In its 4:35 AM report on Friday, the NWS said slightly lower humidity and stronger winds could ease the heat a little or concentrate the highest values in specific areas.
At that hour no heat advisories were in effect for Puerto Rico, though the agency urged people to watch for possible updates during the day. The forecast points to mostly stable conditions through Sunday, with brief showers and localized rain possible during the afternoons in parts of the south and northwest; limited humidity and dry air at upper levels of the atmosphere will favor short-lived precipitation.
Because of the high temperatures, the Weather Service recommends drinking water often, limiting sun exposure and taking breaks in cool or shaded places. It also advises doing the most intense physical activity early in the morning or at sunset and never leaving children or pets alone inside vehicles.
