(CMR) The sister islands are now under a Tropical Storm Alert as of 6:00 p.m. tonight as Tropical Storm Elsa heads towards the Lesser Antilles Hazard Management has announced. At 8 p.m. AST, the center of Tropical Storm Elsa was located about 345 miles (560 km) east of Barbados. It's moving toward the west-northwest near 28 mph (44 km/h) and this general motion is expected to continue for the next couple of days. Maximum sustained winds are at 45mph.

They shared that on advice from the Director General of the Cayman Islands National Weather Service and the Director of Hazard Management Cayman Islands, The Deputy Governor, the Hon. Franz Manderson, Chairman of the National Hazard Management Council has placed the Sister Islands under a Tropical Storm Alert tonight.

A tropical storm ‘alert’ means that tropical storm-force winds are possible in Little Cayman and Cayman Brac within 72 hours. On the current forecast track, Tropical Storm Elsa is expected to pass 70 miles away from the Sister Islands, but due to uncertainty in the models for both the track and intensity of Tropical Storm Elsa, the Alert is being issued as a precaution.

Residents of the Sister Islands should closely monitor the progress of Tropical Storm Elsa.

In the meantime, residents of Cayman Brac and Little Cayman are encouraged to make preparations; including ensuring they have supplies of non-perishable food and bottled water. The District Commissioner for the Sister Islands, Mark Tibbetts has confirmed that preparations are already underway at the Emergency Shelter at the Aston Rutty Civic Centre.

District Officer Tate McFarlane is also ensuring that Little Cayman is ready for the potential threat. Additionally, the Community Emergency Response Teams (CERTs) on both Little Cayman and Cayman Brac are on standby.

Further details will be issued on Friday, but all residents, including those on Grand Cayman are encouraged to closely monitor the progress of Tropical Storm Elsa.

By Sunday, Elsa is forecast to move near Jamaica and portions of eastern Cuba.

A Tropical Storm Warning is in effect for Barbados, Martinique, St. Lucia, St. Vincent and the Grenadines. Tropical storm conditions are expected in portions of the Windward and southern Leeward Islands within the warning areas on Friday.

A Tropical Storm Watch is in effect for Grenada and its dependencies; the southern and western coasts of Haiti from the southern border of the Dominican Republic to Le Mole St. Nicholas; the southern coast of the Dominican Republic from the southern border of Haiti eastward to Punta Palenque; and for Jamaica. Tropical storm conditions are possible in the watch areas in the Lesser Antilles on Friday, the Dominican Republic and Haiti on Saturday, and in Jamaica Saturday night.
