The Office of Disaster Management (ODM) is advising the population of the South side of the island to closely monitor the progress of newly formed and 15th storm of the season Tropical Storm (TS) Ophelia, which is approximately over 1300 miles from Sint Maarten in the Eastern Atlantic Ocean.
TS Ophelia is moving at approximately 13 miles per hour on a Westerly track which would bring it in our area over the weekend.
The ODM will closely monitor the progress of Tropical Storm Ophelia and the public will be informed in future communications and advisories on Thursday and Friday.
