Climate Prediction Center’s Hispaniola Hazards Outlook August 11 – 17, 2016

Suppressed rainfall forecast to continue over many anomalously dry areas of Hispaniola.

Increased rainfall accumulations were received mostly across eastern Hispaniola associated with the inception of Tropical Storm “Earl” during the last week. In Haiti, however, lesser rainfall amounts were received according to satellite estimates. Since early July, rainfall has been generally suppressed over western and southern Haiti, as well as throughout central and eastern Dominican Republic. While the increase in rains and moisture during early August helped to alleviate seasonal moisture deficits, many areas remain moderately below-average in both the quantity and frequency of rainfall, which may negatively impacted ongoing cropping activities. Remotely sensed vegetation health indices also suggest a deterioration of ground conditions over the extreme western and eastern edges of the island.

During the next week, rainfall is expected to be generally suppress over Hispaniola, however the potential locally moderate to heavy rainfall is high over eastern Dominican Republic.
