The storm's damages are estimated to reach $1-$2 billion, primarily from flooding.
A new tropical disturbance in the Atlantic is expected to develop as it moves toward the Lesser Antilles.
Heavy rains are forecasted for Puerto Rico, the Dominican Republic, and surrounding islands early next week.
Meteorologists are monitoring the disturbance's potential impact on the U.S. and Canada.
