Guyana bracing for thunderstorms
The Ministry of Agriculture’s Hydrometeorological Department yesterday warned residents to prepare for thunderstorms, especially over the northern areas.
Current and forecasted area where the center of TS Gonzalo will most likely be in the next five days. The black line shows the most likely trajectory.
This is as a result of Tropical Storm Gonzalo.
In a statement, the Hydromet Department disclosed that the National Hurricane Center had initially reported it as a tropical depression.
However, it was subsequently upgraded to a tropical storm at about 09:00 hrs yesterday.
Additionally, the Hydromet Department noted that Gonzalo is not expected to directly impact Guyana unless the system changes its trajectory and begin to travel towards the south-west of its current position or it increases to in excess of 400 kilometres, which the department noted, was very improbable.
The department further stated that it will continue to monitor the situation.
