Bulletin#2
Date: Sunday 31st of October 2010
ISSUED AT:12:52PM
FLOOD POSSIBILITY EXISTS FOR TOBAGO AND NORTHERN
AND EASTERN TRINIDAD.
Over the past twelve (12) hours, Tobago and
specifically Northern and Eastern parts of
Trinidad, experienced prolonged periods of
rainfall, some of which were heavy and
accompanied by gusty winds.
The feeder band into Tomas remains over both
islands and while satellite and radar imagery
show some degree of weakening there are still few
areas of intense convection in the vicinity of
Tobago that can produce additional rainfall.
Grounds are waterlogged in the above mentioned
areas and with surface runoff there is the
possibility of further flooding to those regions
already inundated. There have also been reports
of landslides in eastern parts of Tobago.
Trinidad but more so Tobago will continue to see
some periods of light rain and/or showers and the
isolated thundershower with improvement to more
settled conditions as the day progresses.
Citizens are advised to be vigilant and cautious
given the forecast weather conditions. All
necessary measures must be adopted to preserve
life and property from any flood waters or
landslides.
THIS IS NOT A TROPICAL STORM / HURRICANE WARNING.
The Trinidad and Tobago Meteorological Service is
closely monitoring this weather situation and
will only issue another bulletin if the situation
warrants.

The Inter-Tropical Convergence Zone (ITCZ) appears as a band of clouds consisting of showers, with occasional thunderstorms, that encircles the globe near the equator. The solid band of clouds may extend for many hundreds of miles and is sometimes broken into smaller line segments. The ITCZ follows the sun in that the position varies seasonally. It moves north in the northern summer and south in the northern winter. The ITCZ (pronounced "itch") is what is responsible for the wet and dry seasons in the tropics. LINK

Tomas has to be redefining hurricane path prediction models. It's done very little the "experts" said and continues to defy historical norms. The drunken driver behavior continues, somebody should breathalyse this looney of a hurricane.
Now I see the rear mass of this system heading south and growing. Margarita and Venezuela are about to get a taste of "Two-mas".
It even looks like it wants to spread eastward toward Trinidad, or certainly the western Gulf of Paria.
I am keepng an eye on this.
Additionally there is a system to the east of us in the Atlantic that seems to be winding up, there is certainly some "steam" coming out of that funnel. Very busy end of the season here!
Amazing!

A thunderstorm has begun over the north western peninsular, from around Diego Martin westward. I am watching to see if this will spread eastward along the Northern Range as this is a natural (relief) rainmaker with north/northeasterly winds.
There are many houses along the hills, on both sides, some on steep slopes with pillars supporting deck type structures. I'd not want to own one of these even in "normal" weather.
In the foothills of the Northern Range we have many little "nooks" and valleys like Petit Valley, The Upper Bournes Road area north of St. James, St. Anns, Maraval and many more going eastward that suffer flood damage during the rainy season when we have heavy showers. I am praying that we do not get too much of this northerly flow.
It is totally overcast at the moment with a warm westerly.
Nothing from the met office that I know of, hopefully I am concerned for nothing.
I was looking at the pics of St. Lucia and Barbados. Heartbreaking.
