Sigificant rainfall is expected today and tomorrow as Tropical Depression Ana makes way into the Caribbean, cutting diagonally through the DR. Ana is the first of three named storms (Ana, Bill and Claudette) that are in the area reminding Caribbean residents that we are in the hurricane season.
The Center for Emergency Operations has issued a green alert from Cano Engano on the East coast through Cabo Beata on the Southwest shoreline. The National Meteorology Office says the rains will continue for much of the week with increased rains in the northeast, east and southeastern parts of the island.
The good news is that Ana is moving fast, at an estimated 37 kms per hour storm. Ana is expected to downgrade into a tropical wave as it passes through the mountainous areas of the DR.
Neither Bill or Claudette will affect the DR.
