Radar:




Long range (248 nautical miles):

http://bmcnoldy.rsmas.miami.edu/tropics/radar/
- Complete loop of the storm while on Puerto Rico's radar. (however many frames that ends up) Can't control loop.

https://radar.weather.gov/radar.php?overlay=11101111&loop=yes&rid=jua&product=N0Z
- 10 frames

https://www.wunderground.com/radar/us/pr/san-juan/jua
- You can select long range once on the page from the menu. (up to 10 frames, 12 if you change the number of frames in the link when viewing the "Save Image" link) Usually you can zoom in on the radar imagery, but I have issues lately trying that.

Short range only (124 nautical miles):

https://weather.cod.edu/satrad/nexrad/index.php?type=JUA-N0Q-0-12
- Up to 200 frames




Satellite:

As of posting, until you loop the imagery the map under the satellite imagery is wrong.
