The most impactful weather will likely favour western areas of Trinidad, however showers and isolated thunderstorms are still possible for other parts of both islands. **Impacts**. Heavy downpours can result in street/flash flooding, landslips may occur in areas that are susceptible and gusty winds may also accompany heavy downpours.</description><instruction>Motorists and residents in areas prone to flooding or landslides should remain alert and exercise caution. Be aware of your surroundings and changing weather conditions as you go about your daily activities. Take necessary precautions to mitigate potential impacts.
