14:15AGUAS BUENASAGUAS BUENASRain bands moving across central Puerto Rico produced gusty winds that downed a tree and a utility pole onto PR-156 near Bayamoncito. The fallen debris blocked the roadway near kilometer 41.1, resulting in a temporary road closure. Law enforcement managed the incident, and the roadway was later reopened. Nearby observations indicated winds between 15 and 22 mph, with locally stronger gusts within the rain activity estimated near 40 mph.
