Panama on Flood Alert

Panama - The National System of Civil Protection (SINAPROC) of Panama has declared green alert due to the rains in the provinces of Bocas del Toro, north of Veraguas and the coasts of Colon.

According to specialists this alert is made when there is a possibility of an event that can place the population at risk.

The measure went into force Monday noon and continues until March 11, indicated the institution, as a result of recent predictions of rainfall from light to moderate in the region.

Consequently SINAPROC staff in the region will continue monitoring the areas vulnerable to flooding and will issue periodic reports to inform the population.

The management of Hydrometeorology of the Electric Transmission Company pointed out that this situation is due to the effects of a high pressure system in the Atlantic Ocean.
