Descripción
UPDATE: The volcanic ash and small craft warning has been downgraded to an advisory.
This alert message is valid from 11 AM today Tuesday 13th April 2021 and will be updated as conditions warrant.
The La Soufriere Volcano remains active and varying intensities of volcanic ash continue to affect Barbados.
A Small Craft Advisory shall be issued when reduced visibility (less than 10 km but greater than 5 km) is affecting or forecast to affect the marine area within the next 36 hours.
Hazard Info:-
**** Hazard Info ****
The southern parts of the island have been impacted the most by the recent ash plume. However much of the ash is presently weakening and satellite imagery does not currently indicate any further explosive eruptions. Once this general trend continues then this advisory will be terminated sometime this afternoon. However, given the highly active nature of the La Soufriere Volcano, it is likely that further eruptions will occur, and depending on the intensity of the ash plume and wind direction, Barbados may continue to experience reduced visibility and further ash deposits.
KEY Messages:
Residents, visitors, and marine users must take action as ashfall will cause a significant reduction in visibility, and possible respiratory problems for persons who experience difficulty in breathing. Persons with respiratory issues or allergies must travel with, or have close at hand, all prescribed relevant medications in case of an emergency.
Marine users should stay in port, particularly if GPS is not in use on vessels. Closely monitor the forecast for critical updates. Check that livestock have enough clean food and water. May need to shelter livestock in heavy ashfall. If you must drive, drive slowly as
ashfall may reduce visibility. You may need to use car headlights because of the reduced visibility.
