00:00from climate is now time for a look at tonight's weather forecast. And Joe said

00:04after almost every day this week seeing rainfall, can we look forward to sunny skies this weekend?

00:12Thank you Arashi. Good evening Trinidad and Tobago. It's Friday and you know what that means,

00:18lime time for some. So let's talk weather. Today was a mixed bag with some fair periods and showers.

00:25Temperatures in the twin island pushed up to 33 degrees Celsius in Trinidad

00:29and 32 in Tobago. It was definitely not the day to forget those water bottles because with that

00:35heat index it definitely felt more like 36. Tonight we can expect some generally fair

00:42conditions with temperatures reaching as low as 24 in Trinidad and 23 in Tobago. But if you're

00:48headed out to that lime, don't be surprised if you get an unexpected splash from above.

00:54In the event that these showers do become thundery, be mindful flash flooding can occur

00:59so do yourself a favor and stay safe out there. Now looking at the rest of the weekend, I hope

01:04you're ready for some more rain. That intertropical conversion zone or ITCZ, that's just big weather

01:10talk for a big band of clouds and rain, is just sitting to the east-southeast of us meaning it'll

01:16likely bring us some more wet weather. So if you're wondering if you'll need to adjust your

01:20Saturday plans, well even though it's going to be on the warmer side of things with temperatures

01:25reaching 33 degrees celsius in Trinidad and 32 in Tobago, some showers may pop up. And if you're

01:32planning to sleep in late on Sunday or just chill, it's gonna be a bit of a similar vibe weather-wise.

01:37Things should cool off slightly with temps at 31 in Trinidad and 32 in Tobago. Apparently the sun

01:43hasn't gotten the weekend memo just yet as sunrise will be at 6.02 in Trinidad and 6 o'clock in

01:50Tobago. Sunset should be at 5.38 p.m in Trinidad and 5.36 in Tobago.

02:00If you're willing to brave the seas, know that seas will be moderate. Waves can be expected to

02:06reach as high as two meters in open waters and one and a half in sheltered areas. Now here's

02:12a look at our tide times. Here's a quick regional update. Tropical storm Sara has made landfall in

02:30Honduras and it's causing some serious rainfall. More than just 500 millimeters in just 24 hours.

02:37Luckily no loss of life has been reported.

02:42So there you have it. It looks like a wet weekend ahead folks.

02:46Have a great weekend, stay safe and enjoy the lime, rain and or sunshine.
