RESIDENTS in flood-prone areas are being advised to take all necessary precautions and remain on the alert.
This from officials at the Barbados Meteorological Office in a special weather bulletin issued earlier this evening.
According to the release, “a low level trough system presently moving across Barbados and the Windward Islands has been generating lengthy periods of light to moderate rain, some occasional outbreaks of moderate to heavy showers, gusty winds and isolated thunderstorms.
“These unsettled conditions will persist across Barbados during the night, and into the early part of tomorrow. Some improvement is expected as the day progresses.”
More than 100 millimetres of rainfall have been recorded for the month of October, and 933.8mm for the year. (PR/SAT)
