The National Meteorological Office (Onamet) has issued a flood warning for the provinces of Monte Plata, San Pedro de Macorís, Monseñor Nouel, Hato Mayor, San Cristóbal, La Vega, Sánchez Ramírez and Greater Santo Domingo. More rain is expected as the tropical wave moves over the country as well as an increase in cloud and thunderstorms.
Onamet is also following Tropical Storm Florence, located to the west north west of the Cape Verde Islands and that is expected to increase slightly over the next day but is also not expected to affect the country.
An area of storms and rain located to the south east of the Cape Verde Islands has a low potential to develop into a tropical cyclone over the next few days.
