WEATHER (6:00 PM Jan 23): Low to mid-level trough to affect Dominica during next 12-24 hrs

Moisture and instability associated with a low to mid-level trough is expected to affect the island over the next 12 to 24 hours. Generally cloudy skies with gusty winds and scattered showers are expected, some of which could be moderate to heavy at times. People in areas prone to surface runoff, flooding, landslides and falling rocks are advised to remain alert and exercise extreme caution, as the ground is saturated.

Seas are forecast to be slight to moderate over the next 24 hours, with waves peaking to 3 feet along the west coast and to 8 feet along the east coast. A Small Craft Advisory remains in effect for the eastern coastline. Mariners and other sea users are advised to remain alert and exercise caution.
