BMS monitoring tropical wave

The Barbados Meteorological Services is closely monitoring the progress of a tropical wave, which is located in the eastern Atlantic along 29/30W, about 3200km or 2000 miles to the east of the island.

The BMS says the tropical wave is currently disorganised and is moving westwards at around 17mph or 28km/h.

There are currently no watches or warnings in effect for Barbados.

As the wave tracks westwards across the Atlantic at 15 to 20 mph, some slow development is possible over the next few days.

The wave is expected to affect the island Sunday night into early Monday morning next week.

The public is advised that this can change and is encouraged to monitor official sources for future updates.
