Onamet is maintaining watch on the evolution of Tropical Storm Wanda, which last night was 1,145 kilometers west/northwest of the Azores, with maximum sustained winds of 75 kilometers per hour, moving to the northeast. However, its location and displacement still do not present a danger for the Dominican Republic.

Tomorrow Saturday, local showers and thunder will be recorded over the northwest, northeast, Central Mountain Range, and the Cibao Valley.
