Trough to bring heavy showers into Monday

SECTIONS OF the island are experiencing a welcome relief from dry conditions this weekend into Monday.

The Meteorological Service Division reports that a persistent trough across Jamaica and the central Caribbean will bring showers, which may be heavy at times, over the period.

Projections are for periods of showers and thunderstorms to affect sections of most parishes, especially during the afternoons.

Fishers and other marine operators are urged to exercise caution as sea conditions will deteriorate in the vicinity of showers and thunderstorms.
