THE FLASH FLOOD warning has been extended until 6 p.m.

In a noon update, acting deputy director of the Barbados Meteorological Services Sonia Nurse urged residents in low lying areas to continue to exercise the necessary caution. She said the warning would be updated “if warranted”.

The interaction of an upper level trough and the Inter-Tropical Convergence Zone has been producing pockets of moderate to heavy showers, periods of rain, some isolated thunderstorms and occasional gusty winds across Barbados. (NB)
