...FLOOD WARNING IN EFFECT UNTIL 230 AM AST MONDAY...

* WHAT...Flooding caused by excess runoff. 

* WHERE...Areas along Rio de La Plata in Dorado and Toa Baja.

* WHEN...Until 230 AM AST Monday.

* IMPACTS...Flooding of rivers, creeks, streams, and other low-lying 
  and flood-prone locations is imminent or occurring. Streams 
  continue to rise due to excess runoff from earlier rainfall. 
  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 828 PM AST, USGS river gauge reports indicated that the
    Rio de La PLata is out of its banks. This could result in
    flooding along areas close to the river.
  - Flooding impacts will continue, but no additional rainfall is
    expected.

PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS...

Turn around, don't drown when encountering flooded roads. Most flood 
deaths occur in vehicles.

Be especially cautious at night when it is harder to recognize the 
dangers of flooding.

Please report observed flooding to local emergency services or law 
enforcement and request they pass this information to the National 
Weather Service when you can do so safely.
