A flash flood watch is in effect for Barbados.
A flash flood watch is issued when heavy or excessive rainfall in a short period of time (generally less than six hours) could result in flash flooding within the watch area, but it does not mean that flooding will occur.
The tail-end of a tropical wave is expected to bring rainfall accumulations of 25mm in moderate to heavy showers across Barbados this afternoon.
This alert will be terminated at 6 p.m., or sooner if conditions warrant. (PR/SAT)
