More rain in the forecast – Met Office

weatherThe local Met Office is advising of additional shower and possible thunderstorm activity this week.

According to the Met Office, moisture and instability associated with a trough system located just east of the island chain, is expected to spread additional cloudiness and shower activity beginning tomorrow, Monday, through Thursday.

Thunderstorm activity is possible late Tuesday into Wednesday (Christmas Day).

Residents in areas prone to flooding, landslides and falling rocks should be vigilant as grounds are already saturated due to the previous rainfall activity, the Met Office said.

Dominica News Online will monitor the weather and will provide updates when they become available from the Met Office.

    The type of weather happening all over the world forces us to realize it is the right time to remember the true meaning of Christmas once again. Those who can give and share with the less fortunate, do so with a kind heart.

    God is in Control. We pray that God will look over our country Dominica and elsewhere.

    Merry Christmas and A Happy New Year
