Hypothesis	Blame it on SST???
	Does the elevated seawater surface temperatures (SST) ‘cause’ the drought?

Here we see last 30 days precipitation for PR is associated with strong anomaly off shore in the Pacific—cause and effect?

NOAA original here

Archive of Monthly anomaly SST

	So it Rained in early April
	April seems the least anomalous of series Interesting correlations but superficial Anomalous SST & ‘drought’ is suggestive but may be confusing cause with effect. Why is the ‘drought’ localized in PR area? Terrace and Smithers are above normal

	SE Alaska is also in drought

How about the Past Year?
