00:00Switching gears a bit now, Rochelle, you join us for the weather report, but of course the National Carnival Commission, they launched Carnival 2026 on the Brian Lara Promenade today, but the rain put a little damper on things.
00:13Yes, I heard. It's very unfortunate, but luckily we can expect mostly sun tomorrow, Sunday and Monday.
00:22So we can get some of those weekend activities in, yeah?
00:24Correct, but we will still have some showers here and there, but not as much. But I'll tell you more at the Weather Center.
00:30Certainly.
00:32Good evening, Trinidad and Tobago. Put the laptops down and throw the work files away because it's finally Friday and also time for your weather.
00:43Activity once again peaked with scattered showers and isolated thunderstorms affecting parts of Tobago and eastern Trinidad, while widely scattered activity occurred over portions of west-central Trinidad.
00:57Luckily, there were no reports of flooding.
01:00And for conditions in Portisbane currently, we have moderate rain with temperatures at 25 degrees and we have winds coming east-southeast at 17 kilometers per hour and humidity is at 94%.
01:14Over in Tobago, we have some scattered clouds with temperatures at 26 degrees and winds coming southeast at 15 kilometers per hour. Humidity is at 89%.
01:26If you enjoyed the rain last night, well, you're in for a treat because you will enjoy it again tonight as conditions will be party cloudy with a few showers and a low chance of thunderstorm activity.
01:38We have minimum temperatures at 24 degrees in Trinidad and 25 over in Tobago.
01:43And don't let conditions experience this week make you cancel your Saturday plans just yet because according to the Met Office, tomorrow will be hot and sunny with a light haze, but it will be interrupted by periods of increased cloudiness accompanied by a few showers.
02:00There is a medium chance of isolated thunderstorm activity.
02:03We also have some Sahara dust paying us a visit with a mild to moderate concentration expected.
02:09So persons sensitive to these changes in air quality, please take the necessary precautions.
02:14Tomorrow's maximum temperatures are expected at 33 degrees in Trinidad and 32 in Tobago.
02:21And conditions are looking even better for the next couple of days as both Sunday and Monday are forecast to be mostly hot, hazy and at times breezy despite again a few isolated showers.
02:34Saturday will experience maximum temperatures of 32 degrees in Trinidad and 31 in Tobago.
02:40On Monday, however, there's a low chance of isolated thunderstorm activity favoring southern areas with maximum temperatures expected at 33 degrees in Trinidad and 32 in Tobago.
02:53So experts say the best time to take a run in the sun is early morning and early evening.
02:59So here's your sun time that will come in handy.
03:02Sunrise is at 559 in Trinidad and 556 in Tobago.
03:07And sunset is at 540 in Trinidad and 536 in Tobago.
03:12And I did say tomorrow will be hot and sunny.
03:15So if the beach is on your mind, here's what your seas are saying.
03:19Seas are moderate with waves 2 meters to 2.5 meters in open waters and near 1 meter in sheltered areas.
03:25But note that all marine interests are advised to exercise caution in association with occasional long period swells.
03:34With that being said, it's now time for your tight times.
03:38It's all for weather tonight.
03:52Have a great weekend, a safe weekend and a blessed weekend.
03:56Don't go anywhere just yet because there's more news when we come back.
