Hazard Info:-
**** Hazard Info ****
A surface to mid-level trough currently affecting Barbados is generating intermittent moderate to heavy showers to the south of the island. These showers are expected to move across the southern portions of the island during the morning. Moderate to heavy shower activity is also expected throughout the day across the island. Maximum rainfall accumulations of 15.0 to 30.0 mm in heavy showers are likely. While these showers are not expected to be continuous, heavy intermittent shower activity is expected to cause flooding in some areas.
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.
