00:00It's now time to check in
00:01with Rochelle for more in
00:03tonight's weather forecast.
00:05Thanks, Vash. Good evening,
00:07Trinidad and Tobago. It's
00:09Friday, but not just any
00:11Friday, it's Carnival Friday,
00:13Fantastic Friday, whatever
00:14you want to call it. And
00:16before we start the
00:17celebrations, here's what's
00:19happening in your weather.
00:20Let's begin with tonight.
00:21Tonight, expect a mostly
00:23fair and hazy night with
00:24isolated overnight showers
00:26and we have minimum
00:27temperatures of 24 degrees
00:29in Trinidad and 25 in
00:31Tobago. Now, those showers
00:33will continue into the early
00:35morning tomorrow and for the
00:37rest of the day, give us a
00:38mostly fair, hazy and breezy
00:40day. So, good weather to go
00:42out and watch the babies jump
00:44and wave for KB's Carnival.
00:46Maximum temperatures will
00:47come in at 32 degrees in
00:49Trinidad and 30 degrees in
00:50Tobago. For Sunday and Monday,
00:53the weather will be nothing
00:54really to complain about as
00:56conditions are expected to
00:58give us a mostly fair, at
01:00times breezy and also hazy
01:01day, except for some brief
01:03isolated showers. So, on
01:05Monday, when you head out for
01:06juve with all the paint and
01:08water and endless vibes, you
01:10won't even notice any brief
01:11shower. Temperatures will come
01:13in at 30 degrees in Trinidad
01:16and Tobago on Sunday and 32 in
01:18Trinidad and 30 degrees in
01:19Tobago on Monday. Let's check
01:22in on our sun times now. In
01:24Trinidad, sun rises at 626 and
01:26624 in Tobago and the sun will
01:29set at 613 in Trinidad and 609
01:32in Tobago. So, if you prefer to
01:34spend your carnival Saturday on
01:36the beach rather than the road,
01:38here's what seas are looking like
01:40for you. Seas will be moderate
01:41with waves 1.5 to 2 meters in
01:43open waters and 1 meter to 1.5
01:46meters and sheltered areas. It
01:48is now time for your tight
01:49times.
02:08And it's also time for a quick
02:10quiz, but this time I took it
02:12to the streets. Take a look.
02:15Carnival Monday and Tuesday are
02:17just a couple days away and
02:19thousands of masqueraders and
02:21spectators will be hitting the
02:22streets for several hours in the
02:25hot blazing sun. So, we want to
02:27find out how much do you know
02:29about sun protection? Hi, so are
02:31you playing carnival with us this
02:33year? Yes. So, as a masquerader
02:36who will be out on the streets in
02:38the sun for several hours, how
02:39often should you reapply your
02:41sunscreen? Probably two hours,
02:43every two hours, I want to say.
02:45That's actually correct.
02:46Yes, it is. So, how long before
02:49heading out to the streets to play
02:51masks should you put on
02:52sunscreen? Fifteen minutes before.
02:55Is it? Yes, it is. Actually,
02:57fifteen to thirty minutes. What's
02:59your name? Nick. And where
03:01from? Toronto. So, you're
03:02playing masks in Trinidad this
03:04year? Yeah. Okay, so I have a
03:06question for you. What areas do
03:09people often forget to apply
03:11sunscreen on? I think legs, arms,
03:15back. Yeah. Well, it's actually
03:18ears, neck, feet, and hairline.
03:22Oh, that's crazy. But thank you.
03:24Thank you so much. Can you get
03:25sunburn on a cloudy day? Yes, it
03:28depends. On the rays of the sun.
03:33Correct. You can't get sunburn on a
03:36cloudy day. Thank you. What's your
03:38name? Michael. And you're, are
03:40you from Trinidad? Yeah, I'm a
03:42Trinidadian, but I'm living away.
03:44Okay. Can you tell us what are some
03:46signs of heat exhaustion? Excessive
03:50sweating. Maybe feeling exhausted.
03:55Uh-huh. What else? Give me two
03:57more. Oh. Oh, feeling ready to pass
04:02out? Yes. Yep. So, yes, they're
04:05correct. So, it's dizziness,
04:07headaches, excessive sweating, and
04:09yes, so you're... Exhaustion. Yes.
04:11Correct. So, thank you very much.
04:14Well, that's all for weather tonight.
04:16Have a safe and enjoyable
04:17carnival. And for those of you
04:19crossing the stage on Tuesday, like
04:21myself, let's make sure to get up,
04:24get up, get up, get up, get up.
04:24Get them for four months. Don't go
04:27anywhere. There's more news when
04:28you come back.
