The National Emergency Management Organization (NEMO) issued a notice to all emergency coordinators this morning to activate all Emergency Operation Centers, in preparation for an incoming weather system.

The United States National Hurricane Center (NHC) issued a report earlier today, stating that an area of low pressure moving across the Caribbean Sea which is bound for Belize, has an up to 80 percent chance of becoming a tropical depression within the next five days.

NEMO asked that all members of Community Emergency Response Teams and volunteer members of community emergency response groups get in touch with their village chairperson as soon as possible to assist with preparations.

The organization also urged Belizeans to discuss their family evacuation plans and businesses to go over their emergency response plans with their staff.

All members of the national emergency response infrastructure have been asked to remain vigilant as full evacuations may be necessary by Wednesday, 2nd November, 2022.
