THE Meteorological Service has continued the Flash Flood Watch For low-lying and flood prone areas of St. Mary, Portland, St. Thomas, Kingston, St. Andrew, and St. Catherine effective until 5:00 p.m.tomorrow.
The met office says a broad area of low pressure currently located across the central Caribbean continues to produce a large area of cloudiness with showers and thunderstorms and is expected to linger across the
region through to Friday.
The forecast is for mostly cloudy conditions with periods of showers and thunderstorms, which could be heavy at times, to continue affecting mainly eastern and central parishes through to Friday, especially
during the afternoons and continuing into the nights.
Due to persistent rainfall across sections of eastern parishes and St. Catherine over the past few days, and the likely soil saturation, any additional rainfall could result in flash flooding and possible landslides.
