This is interesting

With a dearth of information from the online pages of several state agencies tasked with responding to national disasters, the nation turned to the Trinidad & Tobago Weather Centre’s Facebook and Twitter pages during the height of last week’s major flooding.

The site’s creator Kalain Hosein was a hero to thousands, including the media, who accessed his site for reliable, accurate and timely information on the flooding. Hosein is the sole entity behind the Centre which has become massively popular as a constant source of reliable information on weather conditions throughout the country and the region.

Flooding on the southbound lane of the highway - 23rd Oct 2017

An active tropical wave is causing heavy rainfall in south Trinidad and there is flooding on the southbound lane of the Solomon Hochoy highway in the vicinity of Claxton Bay.

[Duane 3NE 2NR]

MET OFFICE - An active Tropical Wave is currently located east of Trinidad and Tobago with accompanying showers
and thundershowers. Over the next 24 hours, as the wave progresses over Trinidad and Tobago, light to
moderate showers are expected in varying localities, with a 60% (medium) chance of heavy showers or
thundershowers in a few areas. The main area of activity however, is forecast to remain east of Trinidad
and Tobago today.

INFORMATION BULLETIN # 2

ACTIVE TROPICAL WAVE APROACHES TRINIDAD AND TOBAGO

An active Tropical Wave, with accompanying showers and thundershowers, is approaching the Southern
Windward Islands. Over the next 24 hours, as the wave progresses over Trinidad and Tobago, light to
moderate showers are expected in varying localities, with a 30 to 40% (medium) chance of heavy
showers or thundershowers in a few areas. The main area of activity however, is forecast to remain north
and east of Trinidad and Tobago.

Street/flash flooding is likely in areas of heavy or prolonged downpours and gusty winds may
accompany thundershowers. Given the current state of some areas that remain inundated from the recent
rainfall event, additional rainfall may exacerbate the situation. Citizens are advised to be vigilant and
cautious as they conduct their activities. All necessary measures MUST be taken to preserve life and
property from adverse weather conditions.

We wish to underscore that Trinidad and Tobago is not under any Tropical Storm Watch or
Warning.

The Trinidad and Tobago Meteorological Service will continue to closely monitor this weather event
and will issue another bulletin if the situation warrants.

Plenty people still need time to recover from last week.

[toyolink]

The ODPM over the last few days went into over-kill with their warnings (with some justification) and the weather seems to be hell bent on causing embarrassment.

Wham? Their scientific equipment need calibration? Or they just guessing?

not really, weather is a prediction. There are percentages of the predicted conditions occurring or not.

guessed when they went into over kill with the warnings it jus didnt occur as they predicted.
