Bulletin #4

Date: Friday 20th of October 2017
ISSUED AT: 06:11 AM

RIVERINE FLOOD ALERT! The Trinidad and Tobago
Meteorological Service is maintaining the riverine
flood alert for Trinidad due to the rainfall
activity associated with the Inter-Tropical
Convergence Zone (ITCZ) over the last 48 hours. As
opposed to Street and Flash Flooding, Riverine
Flooding is more prolonged and widespread.


Reports from the Water Resources Agency indicate
that water levels in some of the nation’s major
rivers as well as their tributaries have reached
threshold levels, including the Caroni River.
Additional rainfall is forecast with Numerical
Weather Prediction Models estimating 20-30
millimeters over the next 24 hours. Gusty winds
can occur in the vicinity of heavy showers and
thundershowers. The possibility of
landslides/landslips also exists in areas so
prone. Given the additional rainfall predicted for
Trinidad the flooding situation is expected to
continue for the next 12 to 24 hours in areas
already being affected.


Citizens in general, and those residing in the
Caroni River Basin in particular, are asked to be
on the alert for high river levels and overspill
in some areas. All necessary measures MUST be
taken to preserve life and property. WE STRONGLY
UNDERSCORE THAT TRINIDAD AND TOBAGO IS NOT UNDER
ANY TROPICAL STORM THREAT, WATCH OR WARNING AT
THIS TIME.
