A Flash Flood Warning is in effect for northern parishes.
The Barbados Meteorological Services says moderate to heavy showers and thunderstorms occuring in northern districts during the afternoon are likely to generate 1 to 3 inches of rainfall.
Possible impacts include runoff from higher elevations, soil erosion or land slippage on exposed or scarred land surfaces, water settlements on roads and fields and adjustments to water levels of existing water bodies.
Large objects or debris from higher elevations may become embedded within fast moving water flows, and flooding at the foot of hillsides and coastal roads may occur. Delays on traffic routes with some roads being impassable or cutoff in and out of minor towns are also possible.
The public is encouraged to monitor official sources for further updates.
This Flash Flood Warning will be terminated at 6:00 p.m. today.
