00:00Let's check in with Rochelle for more on tonight's weather forecast.
00:03Thank you, Disha. Good evening, Trinidad and Tobago.
00:06Let's get right to your weather.
00:08Today we had some morning showers in some areas that eventually gave way to a very sunny day
00:14with some cloudy patches at times.
00:17Daytime temperatures were 32.3 in Trinidad and 31.6 in Tobago.
00:22Moving on now to what we can expect tonight.
00:24Tonight will be fair but hazy despite the odd passing shower
00:28with minimum temperatures at 25 degrees in Trinidad and 26 in Tobago.
00:33And tomorrow you can look forward to predominantly sunny, hazy and breezy conditions
00:38but there is a low chance of reef showers developing during the afternoon.
00:43And make sure you don't leave the house without your face mask
00:46because there will be a moderate concentration of Saharan dust in the atmosphere.
00:51So do what you have to do to protect yourselves.
00:53Tomorrow's maximum temperatures are expected at 32 degrees in both islands.
00:58Now to our two favorite days of the week, Friday and Saturday will be mostly sunny, hazy and breezy
01:04with a low chance of a brief afternoon shower favoring western areas.
01:09Dust concentration will deteriorate to mild levels.
01:13Maximum temperatures will be 32 degrees in Trinidad and Tobago on Friday
01:17and 33 degrees in Trinidad and 32 in Tobago on Saturday.
01:22Now, if you want to take in the sunrise tomorrow, here's when you should be pulling the curtains.
01:28Sunrise is at 545 in Trinidad and 542 in Tobago and sunset at 619 in Trinidad and 616 in Tobago.
01:36And if you're in the need of some vitamin C, see what I did there?
01:41Go ahead because C's will be moderate.
01:43With waves 1.5 meters to 2 meters in open waters and below 1 meter in sheltered areas.
01:49It's now time for your tired times.
02:02So yesterday, the Met Office announced the start of the wet season.
02:06But do you know exactly how to prepare?
02:09Today, we're talking family emergency plan.
02:12This is essential due to the increased risk of flooding, landslides and severe weather.
02:17Families should identify safe evacuation routes and nearby shelters, especially if living in flood-prone or hillside areas.
02:27It's important to assemble an emergency kit with items like bottled water, non-perishable food, flashlights, batteries, medications and important
02:37documents sealed in waterproof bags.
02:39Now, communication plans should also be established so that all members know how to stay in contact if separated.
02:47Staying informed through official weather updates and local authorities helps families act quickly when warnings are issued.
02:56Practicing the plan regularly ensures everyone understands their role and can respond calmly and effectively during an emergency.
03:04Well, now you know.
03:06And that's all for weather tonight.
03:08But don't go anywhere just yet because Sachin is up next.
03:12Thank you very much, Rochelle.
03:13Some great advice there to come and support folks.
03:15QP.
