Water-drenched Jamaica can expect more rains today as Tropical Storm Hanna continues to influence weather in the central Caribbean.

The National Meteorological Service says Hanna, which pounded the Turks and Caicos Islands and The Bahamas yesterday, and killed 10 more people in Haiti, has been extending a trough into the central region, producing a broad band of cloudiness that may result in mild to heavy rainfall.

Still recovering

Flash flooding is possible in some low-lying and flood-prone areas, the Met Office says.

Several Jamaicans are still recovering from Tropical Storm Gustav, which doused the island with heavy rains Thursday into Friday, killing 11 people and destroying up to 200 houses.

Hanna is set to dampen Florida in the United States, where a state of emergency has already been issued for the southern state.
