Flood threat

Date:

Share post:

While many areas in Barbados experienced plenty sunshine and some searing heat yesterday, there were others “blessed” with an abundance of rain; so much that it flooded some districts.

The forecast was for skies to be generally cloudy with moderate to heavy showers and thunderstorms over western, north-western and central districts, with a likelihood of isolated flooding.

True to the reports, many in some sections of St James in particular, had to battle with waters that threatened their homes and vehicles. (JS)
