“Official reports indicate that the South Oropouche and Ortoire Rivers and associated tributaries are steadily receding. Though localized ponding still exists at various locations, additional rainfall today may exacerbate the situations,according to the Trinidad and Tobago Meteorological Service. This “alert” status takes into account the possibility of the event ending, with the certainty at possible.

The color of the alert indicates the severity of the event and the probability of the event occurring. Currently, the alert level is at Green, as the discontinuation was issued, and the certainty is observed (very likely).

At this level, according to the TTMS, while there is a low risk to public safety, livelihoods, and property, showers and thunderstorms could still produce moderate impacts. For a moderate Riverine Flood Alert, there is the potential for possible injuries, where behavioral changes are required to ensure safety. There may be minor damage to property, with income-earning temporarily disrupted and a couple of communities affected

The Met Office is advising the public to monitor updates from official sources, assess your environment for safety concerns, avoid wading through residual flood water and remain vigilant.
