Trinidad and Tobago remains under an Orange Level Tropical Storm Warning until 5pm on Wednesday, with significant rainfall expected to begin by tonight.

Periods of heavy to intense showers and/or thunderstorms are likely, which can result in rainfall accumulations in excess of 100 mm.

Gusty winds in excess of 70km/h can be expected. These wind gusts are capable of breaking tree branches, displacing unsecured roofs and loose outdoor objects, and can even topple over unhealthy trees.

The risk of landslides/landslips is likely in areas so prone and sea conditions can become occasionally rough.
