The heavy rains will continue at the end of this week, although this time due to a tropical wave that although it will not pass directly through the departmentit will have an impact on the rainfall that will occur between Thursday and Sunday, according to meteorological studies carried out by the Administrative Department of Risk Management (Dagran).
This natural phenomenon will mainly affect the municipalities located in Urabá, West, Southwest, North, Valle de Aburrá and Bajo Cauca with strong winds and rainfall that originate from the hurricane season that affect, for example, the island of San Andrés.
“We alert the municipalities, but above all we go to the principle of co-responsibility and the self-care of the community”, said the director of the Dagran, Jaime Enrique Gómez.
According to IDEAM records, the tropical phenomenon has been consolidated as a “potential Tropical Cyclone Two” and there is a 70% chance of formation until Thursdaywhen it is estimated that it will arrive towards the northeast of the Colombian Caribbean Sea, which might generate heavy rainfall.
Faced with this situation, relief agencies remain on alert to deal with any winter emergency that may arise due to these precipitations.
