SAN JUAN, Puerto Rico — The Coast Guard is setting Port Condition ZULU as of 1p.m Thursday for the southern ports of Puerto Rico due to the passing of Tropical Storm Erika.
All other ports in Puerto Rico will also remain at Port Condition ZULU until further notice.
Ports under Port Condition ZULU will officially suspend port operations and are closed to all inbound and outbound vessel traffic until otherwise directed by the Coast Guard Captain of the Port.
Following the passing of Tropical Storm Erika through the area, Coast Guard teams will conduct port assessments prior to reopening any ports closed under Port Condition ZULU and returning to normal port operations.
