A flood advisory means that streams, creeks, and drains may be elevated or even overflowing into streets, low-lying, and flood-prone areas; however, property damage will be minimal.
Inconveniences can be expected, but the flooding is not expected to be immediately life-threatening. However, just one foot of flowing water is enough to sweep vehicles off the road.
When encountering flooded roads, be extremely cautious, and if in doubt, make the smart choice: turn around, don’t drown. Move to higher ground.
A heat-driven pocket of instability and moisture is influencing the weather over the northern section of the island. About 2 inches of rain has fallen in some places in the last 3 hours, and another inch or more is possible.
Hence, minor flooding of low-lying and flood-prone areas is possible.
Antigua and Barbuda Meteorological Services will continue to monitor the situation. Please call 463-4638 for later statements. Also, stay tuned to local radio and TV stations for the latest information.
