Such a shame that someone would take advantage and use a page that is supposed to help keep Corozaleños informed and use it instead to get revenge on people.

ADVISORY NO. 9

ALL CLEAR

As at 6:00 PM, SATURDAY, 19TH OCTOBER, 2024

Update

Nadine has weakened to a tropical depression. All coastal warnings have been discontinued. At 6pm tropical depression Nadine was located near latitude 17.3N, longitude 90.0W or about 120 miles west of Belize City. Nadine was moving to the west at 13 mph with maximum sustained winds of 35 mph. Nadine will continue moving inland away from Belize while weakening further.

On the advice of the Chief Meteorologist and the National Emergency Management Coordinator, Prime Minister John Briceno advises that the "ALL CLEAR" has been issued for the entire country. This means that the country is no longer under the threat of Tropical Storm conditions.

Hazards Which Will Continue to Affect Belize:

-Additional rainfall of 1-2 inches are possible overnight. Winds will be gusty at times and therefore a small craft caution remains in effect. Operators of small crafts are advised to exercise caution.

-Despite the “All Clear” there still remains the potential for flooding in some parts of Belize. This is as follows:

Flood Alerts:
●For Iguana Creek low lying bridge;
●Coastal highway from La Democracia to Hope Creek junction as it may become impassable.

Flood Warning:
●Rio Hondo, New River, Booth’s River, Rio Bravo, Mopan, Macal and Belize Rivers.
●Rivers emanating off the Eastern Slopes of the Maya Mountains.

Landslide Risk:
●Conditions in the north and central highland regions are conducive for landslides to occur.

☆The San Ignacio Low Lying Bridge remains closed and is impassable.
☆Mollejon Spillway is active.

Health Concerns:
-The National Emergency Management Organization (NEMO) and the Ministry of Health and Wellness advises the public that playing, walking, or working in flooded waters is unsafe. Flood waters can be the source of many infectious diseases, chemical hazards and injuries. Anyone exposed to contaminated flood water can get a wound infection, skin rash, stomach illness, tetanus and waterborne diseases such as typhoid fever, cholera, leptospirosis and hepatitis A.

Remain Alert:
-Residents are advised to continue following official information coming from NEMO and the Met Service. The National Emergency Operations Centre and all District Emergency Operations centres in all districts remain on alert. NEMO’s hotline is 936.

Let's work together to keep our community safe and prepared!
