Tropical Storm Warning Discontinued for Tobago

Updated Issuance time #18 (local time) Mon, Jul 1, 2024 2:32 AM

Description: Tropical Storm Warning for Tobago has been further downgraded to Adverse Weather Alert as tropical storm-force winds are now unlikely to affect the island of Tobago. Periods of showers and extended periods of rain are still expected. Gusty winds in excess of 55 km/h can be expected in heavy showers and thunderstorms that can still occur. The likelihood of landslides remains in areas so prone. Hazardous seas have been observed with large, battering waves and mariners should continue to expect significant wave heights, posing danger to small craft, coastal and offshore activities. Strong currents and choppy seas will make navigation hazardous.

Instructions: Continue to take actions to protect lives, livelihoods, and property. Avoid wading through residual flood water. Avoid dangerous areas as residual risks of flooding and landslides exist. Sea bathers, fishermen, small craft operators, and other coastal interests should be fully prepared to protect lives, livelihoods, and coastal property. Exercise extreme caution along the coast. Avoid entering the sea. Be prepared for dangerous breaking waves and currents. Follow the instructions of lifeguards. Monitor official news sources and weather updates from www.metoffice.gov.tt. Follow instructions of government officials.
