The National Meteorological Office (Onamet) reported that rains are expected to continue today, with thunderstorms and some high winds as the result of a low-pressure area over the country and winds from the east-northeast that keep supplying humidity.
The Onamet forecast says that the skies will be partly cloudy, and rains are expected in Samana, Duarte (San Francisco de Macoris), Sanchez Ramirez (Cotui), Espaillat (Moca), Hermanas Mirabal (Salcedo), Santiago, La Vega, Monte Plata, El Seibo, Hato Mayor and San Cristobal as well as the capital.
Onamet is also monitoring an area of low pressure, now 'tropical depression Henri' located about 250 kilometers to the north east of the Leeward Islands and going in a west-northwest direction. However it is expected that Henri will become just a low-pressure area over the next 24 hours.
