[LTER-luq] Tropical Storm Warning in effect - 80% probability of Tropical Storm Force Winds, will track straight over us, maybe 5-8 inches of rain

[Deborah J Lodge]

Dear Jess et al.,

The center of Tropical Storm Erika reformed south of where it had been, in the middle of the convective storms and away from the northern wind-shear side.
The new position means it will track diagonally across PR, and come more or less straight over us (Bisley/Sabana) or just to the south of us (El Verde).
The estimated rainfall is 5-8 inches on the new track.
