Central, eastern and northern areas of Barbados are under a Flash Flood Watch.
According to the Barbados Meteorological Service, daytime heating along with light and variable winds are producing pockets of localised showers across the island.
Maximum rainfall accumulations of 20 to 50 millimetres in moderate to heavy showers are likely to generate some flooding throughout the afternoon as sporadic localised activity affects the island.
Possible Impacts:
Runoff from higher elevations.
Soil erosion on exposed or scarred land surfaces.
Water settlements on roads and fields.
Objects or debris from higher elevations become embedded within fast-moving water flows.
Delays on traffic routes with some roads becoming impassable.
The public should follow recommendations from the Department of Emergency Management and monitor official sources for further updates.
The Flash-Flood watch will be terminated at 6 this evening.
