AN adverse weather alert, Yellow Level, is in effect for Trinidad and Tobago from 5 pm Thursday to 12 noon on Friday.
The Trinidad and Tobago Meteorological Service (TTMS) stated that a tropical wave combined with relatively strong trade winds, is expected to impact weather conditions.
It stated, “Brisk, scattered showers and isolated thunderstorms are likely and can be accompanied by gusty winds. Some gusts may exceed 55 km/h.
“Strong gusts may displace unsecured outdoor objects, cause weak trees or branches to fall and lead to choppy seas. In the event of heavy downpours, localized street flooding is possible, particularly in low-lying areas.”
The Met Office advises securing loose outdoor objects and exercising extra caution in marine activities. Monitor weather conditions and updates from official sources via www.metoffice.gov.tt and www.odpm.gov.tt.
