...FLOOD WARNING IN EFFECT UNTIL NOON AST TODAY...



* WHAT...Flooding due to overflowing of Rio Culebrinas.



* WHERE...Aguada and Aguadilla.



* WHEN...Until noon AST.



* IMPACTS...Flooding of rivers, creeks, streams, and other low-lying 

  and flood-prone locations is imminent or occurring. Low-water 

  crossings are inundated with water and may not be passable. Expect 

  many areas of slow moving or standing water. It will take several 

  hours for all the water from these storms to work through local 

  drainage systems in urban areas.



* ADDITIONAL DETAILS...

  - At 606 AM AST, Emergency managers in Aguada reports that

    flooding continues in the warned area. The most significant

    impacts are along PR-115 between KM 2.1 to 22.3 and 27.1 to

    28.0, where roads are impassable in several sections. Water

    levels will take time to recede, and additional rainfall

    expected this afternoon could lead to renewed rises and

    further flooding. Drivers are urged to avoid travel through

    affected areas and never attempt to cross flooded roadways,

    as conditions remain dangerous and may worsen again later

    today.
