The Barbados Meteorological Services has extended the flood watch.
It advised that over the weekend, occasional moderate to intense showers were observed across the island. This pattern is expected to persist into today with pockets of heavy to intense showers which may result in additional accumulations between 25 and 50mm.
Key Message: Possible moderate to significant:-
-Soil erosion on bared or scarred land surfaces.
-Water settlements on roads and fields which may lead to commuting delays and possible isolated diversions in and out of city.
-Increases in water levels of existing water bodies (e.g ponds etc.).
-Marginally invasive excess water on roads, fields, storm drains/water canals and on property.
-Residents and visitors should also be aware that this alert level could be elevated to red at short notice.
