10.15 am
The National Disaster Preparedness and Response Advisory Committee (NDPRAC) met this morning under the chairmanship of the Hon Acting Governor Sarita Francis and the Hon Chief Minister Reuben Meade to determine the preparedness of the island for Hurricane Earl.
The Category 1 storm is currently to the east of the Leeward Islands and is moving westwards at 18 miles per hour.

All residents and especially people living in low lying coastal areas are asked to be vigilant and listen in to Radio Montserrat for continuous updates.

Shelter are being prepared in case they are needed and further updates on opening of the shelters will be given by the DMCA in a later broadcast. Building contractors especially are asked to secure loose building materials that might wash or blow away as rain and winds increase.
Everyone should note that Montserrat is under HURRICANE WARNING and final preparations to protect property and your family members should now be almost complete. Do not be complacent – act now.
Please stay tuned to Radio Montserrat on 88.3 and 95.5 FM for further updates.
