Guadeloupe still under the threat of stormy showers is kept in yellow

The situation will have been the same all day this Sunday and continues tonight. Tropical wave No. 53 discharged into the Caribbean Sea. The air mass remains humid and unstable behind the Archipelago and the wind remains weak. Conditions are therefore conducive to locally sustained precipitation and a significant risk of thunderstorms. Guadeloupe is kept on yellow alert.

We take the same ones and start again. Guadeloupe is kept on yellow alert this Sunday evening for heavy rain and thunderstorms. In the evening and next night, rainy or even stormy bursts still threaten our archipelago, mainly in the south of Basse-Terre, the Southern Islands, the lands bordering the two Culs de Sac-marin, the Pointoise region and part of the Grands -Fonds without forgetting the eastern tip of Grande-Terre. Thunderclaps can be heard.

The weakness of the wind further increases the possibility of significant accumulations of rain.

We expect rainfall totals of around 40 to 80 mm in 3 hours, values ​​of 30 to 50 mm in 1 hour cannot be excluded.

Over the last 12 hours, we have measured in the rain gauges in our network:

  • 19 mm at the Maison du Volcan in Saint-Claude
  • 11 mm at Capesterre-Belle-Eau Carbet
