Big Storm -> Big Swell
From the NWS for Mayaguez and Vicinity:
THIS COASTAL FLOODING IS THE GREATEST NON-TROPICAL CYCLONE RELATED
SWELL EVENT EXPERIENCED IN THE LOCAL AREA SINCE THE PERFECT STORM OF
1991. RESIDENTS AND LOCAL INTERESTS SHOULD CONTINUE TO EXPECT MAJOR
BEACH EROSION...AS WELL AS STRUCTURAL DAMAGE TO PIERS... BOARDWALKS
AND STRUCTURES DIRECTLY ADJACENT TO THE COASTLINE. THE GREATEST RISK
FOR COASTAL FLOODING AND MAJOR BEACH EROSION WILL OCCUR NEAR TIMES
OF HIGHS TIDES.
The town is alive as to be expected! It has been a slow season so far however this weeks event is doing its best to make up for the dry spell. Emily went down and took a few shots over the last couple days. We will post more in the pictures section. This one is from today (Swell actually peaked yesterday evening). Maybe some day soon I will try to learn how to surf ;)
Tres Palmas This AM (March 21st)
