RAINFALL:  Rainfall will begin to affect Bermuda on Thursday with 
rainfall totals of 3 to 5 inches expected through Friday.

These rainfall amounts could result in scattered flash flooding.

Rainfall across Puerto Rico and the U.S. and British Virgin Islands 
should diminish on Thursday.
 
WIND:  Tropical storm conditions are possible on Bermuda beginning
Thursday night.
 
SURF:  Swells generated by Philippe will affect portions of the
Atlantic coasts of the northern Leeward Islands, the Virgin Islands,
and Puerto Rico for another day or so.  Large swells are already
affecting Bermuda from another weather system but will begin to
increase further on Thursday as Philippe approaches the island.
These conditions are likely to cause life-threatening surf and rip
currents. Please consult products from your local weather office.
