The Barbados Meteorological Services continues to closely monitor an area of disturbed weather embedded within the monsoon trough about 1300 KM or 820 miles east of Barbados.

The system continued to exhibit a broad area of disorganized convection throughout the day. Although conditions remain marginally conducive, the system is not expected to undergo any rapid development as it slowly moves westward to west-northwestward around 5 to 10 mph over the next few days.

FORECAST TRACK:
Extended forecast tracks remain consistent over the past 48 hours with a projected track well north of Barbados by Friday this week.

WHAT SHOULD YOU DO?
The BMS is strongly recommending that the public listens for daily updates over the next few days.

REMINDERS:
We are entering the peak of the hurricane season and the public is asked to ensure that their hurricane preparedness checklists have been completed and to be ready.

The next update will be issued by this department at 6 pm on 30th August 2022.
