RESIDENTS ON MONTSERRAT ARE ADVISED TO MONITOR THE PROGRESS OF THIS DISTURBANCE.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

THAT’S ACCORDING TO A TROPICAL STORM ANA (POTENTIAL TROPICAL CYCLONE ) ALERT STATEMENT ISSUED BY THE ANTIGUA AND BARBUDA METEOROLOGICAL SERVICES AT 8:00 PM ON SUNDAY, AUGUST 28, 2022<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A TROPICAL CYCLONE ALERT MEANS THAT, IN THIS CASE, A TROPICAL DISTURBANCE IS IN OUR MONITORED AREA OF CONCERN, BUT A WATCH OR WARNING IS NOT REQUIRED, AT THIS TIME.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

BASED ON THE LATEST OBSERVATION AND ANALYSIS, IT IS TOO EARLY TO SAY WHAT IMPACTS, IF ANY, THE DISTURBANCE (AL91) WILL HAVE ON THE ISLANDS AT THIS TIME.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

AT 8 PM, THE DISTURBANCE WAS LOCATED APPROXIMATELY OR ABOUT 1090 MILES EAST-SOUTHEAST OF THE LEEWARD ISLANDS OR ABOUT 1290 MILES EAST-SOUTHEAST OF THE BRITISH VIRGIN ISLANDS.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

THE DISTURBANCE IS MOVING TOWARD THE WEST AT 10 MPH AND THIS MOTION, ALONG WITH A REDUCTION IN FORWARD SPEED AND A TURN TO THE WEST-NORTHWEST IS FORECAST IN THE NEXT COUPLE OF DAYS.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

EARLIER, SATELLITE DERIVED WINDS INDICATE THAT THE DISTURBANCE WAS PRODUCING WINDS OF 35 MPH WITH HIGHER GUSTS AND THERE IS A 70 PERCENT OR HIGH CHANCE OF THE DISTURBANCE BECOMIMG A TROPICAL CYCLONE LATER THIS WEEK IF THE CENTER BECOMES BETTER DEFINED.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

THERE ARE NO WATCHES OR WARNING IN EFFECT AT THIS TIME; HOWEVER, RESIDENTS SHOULD CONTINUE TO MONITOR THE PROGRESS OF THIS SYSTEM.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

THE NEXT ADVISORY WILL BE AT AROUND 8 AM ECT TOMORROW OR SOONER, IF NEEDED.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
