Met Office advises caution due to tropical waves to affect Dominica

The Met Office is advising caution as several tropical waves are expected to affect Dominica during the week.
Those living in flood-prone areas are asked to be vigilant.

According to information from the Met Office, on Tuesday a tropical wave interacting with the Inter-Tropical Convergence Zone is expected to produce increased shower and possible thunderstorm activity across the central and southern portions of the Lesser Antilles, including Dominica.

This will be followed by a temporary improvement in conditions by afternoon.
However, on Thursday, another tropical wave is expected to affect the Lesser Antilles, including Dominica, and yet another from late Friday into Saturday.

The Met Office said the latter wave is being monitored for tropical cyclone development as it moves across the Atlantic.
“People in areas prone to flooding, landslides and falling rocks should remain vigilant and are advised to exercise caution during these events,” the office said in a statement on Tuesday morning.
