On 2026-09-28, the Servicio Nacional de Meteorología in San Juan issued a high risk alert for dangerous marine currents along Puerto Rico's entire north and east coast from Aguadilla to Fajardo.[^2]

As of 2026-09-27, Arecibo and Hatillo remain under flood advisory until 4:00 PM AST, while Ceiba and Fajardo are under advisory until 4:30 PM AST.[^3]

A lawsuit seeks to enforce a contract clause requiring NFE to open its San Juan terminal to allow the Puerto Rico Electric Power Authority to import natural gas from alternate suppliers.[^1]

LUMA Energy was given 10 calendar days to disclose if any public lighting agreement drafts were delivered to municipalities since 3 March 2026.[^4]
