Currently en Puerto Rico — 25 de septiembre, 2023: Se aleja una onda tropical

La humedad dejada atrás por una onda tropical generará aguaceros y tronadas dispersas en Puerto Rico el lunes. Sin embargo, la atmósfera se volverá considerablemente más seca mientras se siga alejando esta onda, lo que conducirá a tiempo mayormente despejado y soleado a partir del martes, salvo actividad aislada en el este por las mañanas y en el interior y el oeste por las tardes. Según el último pronóstico del Centro Nacional de Huracanes, la tormenta tropical Phillipe debería permanecer cientos de millas al noreste de Puerto Rico, ya que girará al noroeste hacia el Atlántico central a mediados de semana. Por lo tanto, el impacto principal de esta tormenta probablemente se limitará a las marejadas marinas en aguas locales y en las costas norte/este.

What you need to know, currently.

Fall is here, and so far the trees are not disappointing this year.

My new favorite fall leaf-peeping guide is Explore Fall, which daily auto-generates a 7-day forecasted fall-colors map on almost a neighborhood scale based on weather, soil moisture, sunlight, and citizen science observations for the entire lower 48 states (sorry, no Canada yet).

Here in Minnesota, I tested out the algorithm on a few hikes this weekend and the leaves were stellar. It’s that time of year where the leaves seem to change almost hour-by-hour, so if you have a chance to get out there, don’t miss it.
