CAUTION

There is a risk of flash flooding due to expected moderate-to-heavy rainfall. Strong winds may accompany the rains. The public is advised not to drive through surface runoff, as it can have strong undercurrents. Other likely hazards include slippery road surfaces and reduced visibility during the rain, which can disrupt road traffic. Strong winds are a threat to weak structures, trees, and masts. Disconnect electrical appliances before, not during, the rains. Elsewhere (see places in Green), no hydrometeorological hazards are anticipated. The public is, however, advised to watch out for updates.
