CDPMN warns region to brace for less rainfall as countries move into the heart of dry season

The Barbados-based Caribbean Drought and Precipitation Monitoring Network says as the region moves into the heart of its dry season, rainfall will continue to decrease.

In its latest Caribbean Drought Bulletin, the CDPMN said, like Cuba, interests in Hispaniola, parts of the Leeward Islands, Puerto Rico, and St. Vincent should closely monitor their water resources over the coming months since long-term drought can impact large rivers and groundwater.

CDPMN said that for the last three months of 2022, apart from Barbados, which was slight to moderately dry, rainfall throughout the eastern Caribbean was normal to above normal.
