This is due to the humidity that is being brought in by the east/northeast wind, which is typical of the remnants of a frontal system. In the afternoon and early evening, precipitation will extend to some points in the southeast and the Central mountain range, particularly over La Romana, San Pedro de Macorís, San Cristóbal, Santo Domingo, Santiago, La Vega, Monseñor Nouel, San José de Ocoa, San Juan, among others.

The Onamet has removed the alerts that it had previously issued for possible urban flooding, river, stream and gully overflows, as well as landslides.
