A flashflood watch is in effect for Barbados.
In a statement, the Barbados Meteorological Services (BMS) says a tropical wave is currently affecting the island with light to moderate showers and occasional gusty winds. These conditions are expected to continue throughout the afternoon.
The BMS added: “Rainfall accumulations also totalled around half an inch throughout the morning period. Throughout the afternoon into evening, conditions remain favorable for further deterioration with more frequent and heavier showers, and hence a Flash-Flood Watch has been issued.”
The flash flood watch will be terminated at 6 p.m. or sooner if conditions warrant.
