Flooding Trinidad and Tobago is highly vulnerable to several types of flooding and it has become this country’s most frequent natural disaster.

With a high tide coming in at 5:45 PM, and it is a spring tide (higher-than-usual) high tide, runoff will be slow. As a result, street/flash flooding is likely, particularly in Port of Spain.

Expect traffic delays on your evening commute out of the capital.
