Flooding due to La Nina – CDC

The National Taskforce on Flooding led by Prime Minister Mark Phillips met on Saturday to ensure that all steps are in place to proactively manage the current rainy season.

According to a release on Saturday from the Civil Defence Commission (CDC), the Hydrometeorological Service, through the Ministry of Agriculture,  has stated that the country is experiencing the La Nina phase of weather but that so far all systems are operational to ensure that residents are not significantly affected by the rain and inundation.

Residents of the Pomeroon and other parts of the country have complained about deep flooding just months after they had experienced inundation.
