Weather this weekend will be good enough for beach-going. But those in the Dominican Republic should monitor Tropical Storm Irma that has become the 10th named storm of the 2017 Atlantic Hurricane Season as it makes its way towards the Caribbean. The storm is expected to become a powerful cyclone as it moves towards the region next week.
Gloria Ceballos, director of the National Metereological Office (Onamet) says the storm has 90% probability of becoming a hurricane.
She said light rains are forecast for this weekend for most of the national territory.
