The Emergency Operations Center (COE) has issued a green alert for the residents of the provinces of Montecristi, Dajabon, Santiago Rodriguez and Valverde, following forecasts of increased rainfall.
The rescue organization says that people who live near rivers, streams and hillsides in the areas under a green alert should take precautions against flooding and landslides.
The decision was taken, according to the COE because conditions exist for weak to moderate rains in the area of the frontier, the Central Mountains and the north west. The frontal area persists over Haiti, and continues to affect the weather in the north west.
