PRESS RELEASE: FLOOD WARNING ISSUED FOR SAINT LUCIA.

Heavy rainfall over Saint Lucia during the past 24 hours has raised the possibility of flooding and landslides in parts of the island prone to those hazards.

The Saint Lucia Meteorological Services has therefore issued a flood warning for Saint Lucia with effect from 2:00 pm today until midnight.

Residents and motorists, especially those in areas prone to flooding and landslides are urged to exercise extreme caution in their activities.
