The Center for Emergency Operations (COE) has issued a green alert for residents of Hato Mayor, El Seibo, Duarte, Samana, San Cristobal, Azua and Santo Domingo. The alert means that persons living in low-laying areas and near steep inclines should be on the lookout for floods and landslides. These may be caused by the effects of a tropical wave moving NE over from the Lesser Antilles.
The COE also recommends that small craft along the Atlantic Coast remain in port, due to high seas and winds.
In the Samana Bay and along the Caribbean coast these craft may carry out their work, but should remain close to the shoreline.
The tropical wave over the Lesser Antilles is showing a large cloud mass and winds that vary from 35 to 55 kilometers per hour. However, there is only a slight possibility that this wave could become a storm.
