The area of disturbed weather associated with an
active Tropical Wave has intensified overnight
and developed into Tropical Storm Rafael
currently located in the northeastern Caribbean
Sea.
At 5 a.m. today Tropical Storm Rafael was located
near Latitude 15.7 N, Longitude 64.2 W, which is
approximately 230 km south-southeast of St.
Croix.
Rafael is moving toward the northwest at 15 km/hr.
A gradual turn to the north-northwest is expected
later today. On this forecast track, the centre
of Rafael should be moving near or over the
Virgin Islands tonight.
Maximum sustained winds within Rafael are near 65
km/hr with higher gusts. Some strengthening is
forecast during the next 48 hours.
Presently, Trinidad and Tobago is being affected
by the rainbands associated with this system
which is producing moderate at times heavy
showers with occasional thundershowers, some of
which have reportedly been intense. Similar
conditions could be experienced over the next 4
– 6 hours.
In addition to rainfall run-off already on the
ground, accumulations of between 20 – 40
millimeters are anticipated from this rainfall
event. Gusty winds in excess of 45 km/hr will
accompany heavy showers/thundershowers.
Landslips/landslides are likely along slopes of
the northern range. Rivers of moderate carrying
capacities may become inundated. Sea conditions
may become turbulent in heavy
showers/thundershowers.
Citizens are advised to be vigilant and cautious
given forecast weather conditions. Be alert to
any electrical discharges from thunderclouds and
adopt measures which would preserve life and
property.
WE STRONGLY UNDERSCORE THAT TRINIDAD & TOBAGO IS
NOT UNDER ANY TROPICAL STORM THREAT, WATCH OR
WARNING AT THIS TIME.
The Trinidad & Tobago Meteorological Service is
closely monitoring weather conditions and will
issue another bulletin at noon today or sooner if
the situation warrants.
