Unsettled weather is set to affect the country over the next several hours, with the Meteorological Service warning of periods of rainfall of varying intensity and a 70 percent chance of scattered heavy showers and thunderstorms.

Forecasters say the unstable conditions could bring gusty winds above 55 kilometres per hour, capable of displacing loose outdoor items and creating choppy seas.

Heavy downpours may also trigger street and flash flooding, along with localized ponding in low-lying areas.

Residents in hilly regions should be alert for landslides and slippage, especially where soils are already saturated.

The public is urged to monitor official updates and exercise caution on the nation’s roads.
