The Trinidad and Tobago Meteorological Service has discontinued the Hazardous Seas Alert for the country on Sunday at 12:04 PM.
Over the last four days, northerly long-period swells have affected predominantly T&T’s northern coastlines. These swells are forecast to occasionally continue through mid-week.
According to the Trinidad and Tobago Meteorological Service, “Based on recent observations, the threat of choppy sea conditions and battering waves has
been decreasing, and significant impact to coastal activities is no longer expected.”
The alert’s color indicates the event’s severity and probability of the event occurring. Currently, the alert level is at Green, as the discontinuation was issued, and the certainty is observed (or very likely).
According to the TTMS, public safety, livelihoods, and property are at low risk at this level.
The Met Office advises, “As always, all marine interests should continue to monitor sea conditions when engaging in any sea-related activities.”
