    HOT SPELL WARNING #1-YELLOW LEVEL

    Urgency: Expected Response: Prepare

    Severity: Moderate Certainty: Observed

    The Trinidad and Tobago Meteorological Service is warning of extremely hot conditions
    predominantly over Trinidad and Tobago from the 15th to the 29th of September 2023.
    There is a high (80%) probability that temperatures near 34.0 °C or greater are expected to
    continue roughly over the next two weeks across Trinidad. Warm-to-hot conditions near 32.5
    °C or greater are expected to occur across Tobago. In cities, urban and built-up areas, the
    maximum temperatures are expected to be high (near to or greater than 34.0 °C) and feel-like
    temperatures particularly when the winds are calm to light will likely to range between 34.0
    °C and 44.0 °C. The hottest time of the day is between 10:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. High
    temperatures can be hazardous to health, especially to the elderly, sick adults, and young
    children. Therefore, a proactive approach to lessen the effects of hot spell conditions should
    be adopted. Climatic conditions: Trinidad and Tobago is in its heat season, which runs from
    Description:
    May to October. In general, during September months, the islands experience mostly hot
    sunny periods and warm nights. The winds are generally weak but with occasionally moderate
    strength coming from the east to southeast with wind speeds of 20-30km/h. Present climatic
    conditions: During this September, there are many climatic features working together to
    promote warmer to hotter days. The winds are calm to light, with fewer cloudy periods which
    enables greater incoming solar radiation, particularly during the mid-morning to afternoon
    periods. These climatic features are: 1. A moderately strong El Nino which generally restricts
    cloud development; 2. A negative phase of the North Atlantic Oscillation (NAO) which
    encourages weak winds across the Caribbean; 3. A warmer than usual Atlantic Ocean Sea
    Surface Temperatures (SSTs) east of the Trinidad and Tobago; 4. The apparent local position
    of the sun at our latitude; 5. Southeasterly flow of wind from the equatorial region.

    Wear appropriate clothing, stay hydrated at all times, and keep out of direct sunlight to avoid
    Instructions: sunburn. Open appropriate windows, vents and doors in your homes to ventilate at times.
