The Barbados Meteorological Services is monitoring an area of disturbed weather associated with an elongated area of low pressure located some 480 miles or 770 kilometres to the east of Barbados.

However, in a statement issued today, The Met Office said there are no watches or warnings in effect.

“Although the satellite imagery presentation of the system has improved compared to 24 hours ago, the system remains poorly organised at this time. Some slow development of this system is possible as it moves towards the west-northwest near 10 to 15 mph. Current forecast tracks indicate that the centre of the area of low pressure should pass north of Barbados sometime late Monday evening,” the Met Office said.

Members of the public should monitor the progress of this system over the next 24 to 36 hours. The next update will be at 5 p.m. or sooner if conditions warrant. (PR)
