Effective

Expires
17:00:00 2021-09-26
Description
The Barbados Meteorological Services continues to monitor the progress of Hurricane Sam located near 12.9N 47.6W or approximately 1256Km (780 miles) east of Barbados at 11 AM Saturday 25th September 2021.
Sam is currently moving towards the west-northwest and is expected to take a north-westward track early next week. Based on this trajectory, this system is not likely to pose any direct threat to the island.
************************SPECIAL NOTE************************
As Sam passes to the north of Barbados early next week, we can expect a further reduction in wind speeds, this will lead to warmer than usual air temperatures. For further information and tips on what you can do during these warm episodes, please follow our social media pages and other recommendations issued by official sources.
***************************************************************
The BMS will continue to monitor the progress of this system over the next few days.
Recommendations of the public:
Continue to monitor all updates and alerts issued by the BMS.
The next update will be at 5 PM Sunday 26th September 2021.
