Some rainstorms will be felt as the trough of low pressure, associated with the remnants of Harvey, produce large area of cloudiness and disorganized thunderstorms over the west-central Caribbean. But in general, weather news is good for the Dominican Republic.
The good news is that the weather forecasters now say that the large area of cloudiness and disorganized thunderstorms located to the east-northeast of the northern Leeward Islands will run into upper-level winds that make it unlikely this system will develop as it moves northwestward through the Caribbean.
This is the peak time for the hurricane season in the DR, a time to be prepared for big storms, and to monitor the storms as they enter the Caribbean waters.
