Go-Jamaica Weather Watch

The Meteorological Service has extended the Flash Flood Watch for low-lying and flood-prone areas of all parishes until 5 p.m.
 
A flash flood watch means flash flooding is possible and residents are advised to take precautionary measures.

The Meteorological Service says residents should be ready for quick action if flooding is observed or if a flash flood warning is issued.

A surface trough across the western Caribbean has been influencing the weather conditions.
The Met Service said the system has now deepened as it spreads across the central Caribbean basin. 

As a result, it is expected that periods of showers will continue today.
 
Last night, Jamaica experienced cloudy conditions with light to moderate and sometimes heavy showers mainly over southern and central parishes.
 
It’s forecast that there will be scattered showers and thunderstorms to across most parishes today.
