People in areas prone to landslides and falling rocks are advised to exercise caution, particularly during tonight and into tomorrow.
Dust haze is expected to persist throughout the weekend resulting in a reduction in visibility and air quality. People with respiratory sensitivities are advised to take the necessary precautions to avoid complications.
Meanwhile, Tropical Storm Claudette formed off the Gulf Coast of the United States and poses no threat to Dominica.
Moderate seas are anticipated during the next 24 to 48 hours with waves peaking to 8.0ft along the east coast. A Small Craft Advisory is in effect for above normal seas on the east coast. Small craft operators and sea bathers are advised to exercise caution.
