The Civil Defence Commission (CDC) has indicated that there will be above-normal rainfall, with the potential to cause flooding across Guyana on Sunday (April 05, 2026).
Recent rainfall would have already saturated the ground, and additional rainfall would significantly elevate the risk of flooding, particularly in low-lying and poorly drained areas.
The CDC urges all members of the public to take the necessary precautions during periods of rainfall and flooding:
- Avoid flood-prone areas whenever possible.
- Exercise extreme caution when driving or walking during rainfall, especially in areas affected by pooling water.
- Keep drains, trenches, and waterways clear to reduce the risk of flooding.
- Secure important documents, household items, and other valuables.
