The Ministry of Rural Development and Local Government (MoRDLG) reported minimal impact from the tropical wave that passed over Trinidad and Tobago on Sunday. The Trinidad and Tobago Meteorological Service (TTMS) has since discontinued the Adverse Weather Alert as weather conditions have improved across most areas.
According to the Ministry, some communities experienced short-term street and residential flooding due to heavy rainfall, but there was no significant or widespread damage. Disaster Management Units (DMUs) across all 14 Municipal Corporations remain on alert and continue to monitor vulnerable areas prone to flooding and landslides.
Minister of Rural Development and Local Government Khadijah Ameen thanked first responders, DMU personnel, and community volunteers for their swift coordination during the period of adverse weather. She also credited the mitigation work of the Ministry of Works and Infrastructure and the clean-up campaigns undertaken by the Municipal Corporations for helping to reduce the potential impact.
