This is the text this morning from NWS for the PR/VI

Increasing tropical moisture is expected on Friday into the weekend
with the passage of a surface trough followed by a potentially
strong tropical wave for the weekend. Recent model guidance and
information from the National Hurricane Center continued to suggest
that this system has the potential for further development during
the next few days, as it approaches the Leeward Islands. There still
remain some inconsistencies in the model guidance but all suggest
a very moist and unstable weather pattern for the region through
much of the long- term, as we approach the peak of the hurricane
season. As previously mentioned there is still some uncertainties
between model guidance in the final forecast track and timing of
this feature but regardless, the potential for heavy rainfall
across the region over the upcoming weekend is high at this time
based on the present persistence in model guidance.

A slight improvement in the weather conditions is expected by Monday
though Tuesday as the strong Tropical system moves farther away from
the region and trailing moisture lingers across the forecast area.
A drier airmass and another surge of Saharan dust is so far forecast
by the middle of the upcoming workweek.
