There was water everywhere along Fontabelle, St Michael this evening as motorists made their way along that stretch of road.

Barbados is on a flash flood warning until 6 this evening. A number of areas across the island are affected including other parts of St Michael and St Thomas.

The Met Office says central, western and north western areas are affected.

When I was growing up in Barbados over 60 years ago the engineers built roads with gutters and trenches for water to run off to the gullies and the sea. They were not CERTIFIED, but they had common sense. Nowadays the certified engineers block off the gutters and erect concrete sidewalks with no way for the water to go. Why are you suprised that all the street of Barbados are flooded any many have become waterfals after a little rain?
