Descripción
This alert message is valid from 12 NOON and will be UPDATED at 6PM or sooner if conditions warrant.
A Flood Watch is issued when the conditions are favourable for flooding within the next 36 hours. It does not mean that flooding will occur, but it is possible.
Hazard Info:-
**** Hazard Info ****
A surface to mid-level trough currently affecting Barbados is generating intermittent moderate to heavy showers across the island. Maximum rainfall accumulations of 25.0 to 30.0 mm are likely during the afternoon. While these showers are not expected to be continuous, heavy intermittent shower activity may cause flooding in some areas. This activity is expected to increase during the night into tomorrow, Saturday 28th November 2020 and the BMS is forecasting the possibility of a further 50 to 75mm (2 - 3 inches) of rainfall. Therefore, a Flood Watch may be issued for that period.
Hazards: Residents and visitors should be prepared for the following possibilities if this alert level elevates to red:- Significant runoff from higher elevations. Significant soil erosion is likely on exposed or scarred land surfaces. Large water settlements on roads and fields. Significant adjustments to water levels of existing water bodies (ponds etc.). Significant delays on traffic routes with some roads possibly impassable. Large objects or debris from higher elevations may also become embedded within fast moving water flows. Significant flooding at the foot of hillsides and coastal roads is possible.
