The Adverse Weather Alert/YELLOW Level activated earlier today for Trinidad, Tobago and offshore marine areas has been discontinued, and the alert status now stands at GREEN.
The YELLOW Level status was downgraded by the Trinidad and Tobago Meteorological Service (TTMS) at about 4 pm today.
In its latest advisory which it says is the final public warning message for this severe weather event, the Met Service noted:
“The potential for impactful rainfall and thunderstorm activity has significantly reduced and settled conditions now exist. While some cloudiness is expected to persist overnight with a few showers likely, the possibility of thunderstorms have decreased to 30 - 40% as atmospheric conditions are now less favourable.”
However, the Met Service still advises that the public remain vigilant:
“Assess your environment for safety concerns. Don’t take unnecessary risks. Remain vigilant.”
The public also is encouraged to continue monitoring updates from official sources such as the Met Service (www.metoffice.gov.tt/) and the ODPM (www.odpm.gov.tt)
