1 Do not apply the ice directly to the knee; instead, cover your knee with a cotton towel. 2  Place ice in a plastic zip-close bag, and then place the bag on the towel. 3  Wear cushioned, flat shoes that support your feet and donât exacerbate your pain. 4  Avoid sleeping on your side.
A simple and general rule-of-thumb for estimating a storm's low pressure contribution to the surge is as follows: 1 cm of rise above predicted tidal values for each 1 hPa below the standard atmospheric pressure of 1013 hPa. For example, Hurricane Juan had a central pressure of 974 hPa when it made landfall just west of Halifax Harbour. The pressure effect alone would result in a surge of approximately 39 cm, however, the surge measured in Halifax Harbour was about 150 cm. Clearly, a more important mechanism was at work. The wind is the key.
San Juan weather essentials. As with almost all tropical destinations, any time of year is the best time of year to visit San Juan. There are no actual seasons, in that weather is warm and humid year round, and temperatures can be expected to reach the high 70s and low 80s (Fahrenheit) even in what is technically winter. The only thing travelers really need to take into consideration when planning a trip to San Juan is hurricane season. In Puerto Rico, hurricane season starts in June and ends in November. It isnât necessary to avoid visiting during these months - just make sure to remain updated on hurricane warnings and weather reports during the days before your plane departs.
