Hazardous Seas Alert For Trinidad

By Newsroom

Long-period north-easterly swells generated by Hurricane Lorenzo continue to affect “northern and sheltered Nearshore coastal areas” according to the TT Met Office.

  “Effects will be in the form of occasional battering waves which can lead to localized disruption to sea bathing and other nearshore coastal activities. Localized beach erosion is also possible,” the Met Office said.

“Effects will be exacerbated at high tide, as spring tides are in effect.

“As a result Sea bather, fishermen, and small craft operators should carefully monitor nearshore coastal sea conditions and exercise caution along  the affected areas.

“Be alert for dangerous breaking waves and currents,” the Met Office warned.
