British Virgin Islands Irhuluneli u-Augustus Jaspert ubhengeze ukuba ixesha lokubuya ekhaya liya kuba kwindawo eqala nge-2: 00 pm namhlanje kude kube ngu-6: 00 kusasa ngoLwesine kusasa, okanye kude kukhutshwe yonke into, njengenxalenye yamalungiselelo okudlula I-Tropical Storm Dorian.
Isiteyitimenti esipheleleyo seRhuluneli ngesiqhwithi esizayo:
Usuku olungileyo nonke.
Ukuza kuthi ga ngoku, nonke niya kube nithe qwa njengoko silungiselela ukudlula kweTropical Storm Dorian. Njengoko iinkqubo ezincinci zithande ukwenza, uDorian womeleze watshintsha umkhondo. Ngokusekwe kwimodeli yangoku, ukomeleza ngakumbi kulindelekile, kwaye iiVirgin Islands ngoku ziphantsi kwesilumkiso seNkanyamba. Oku kuthetha ukuba iimeko zesaqhwithi zilindelwe ngaphakathi kweTrailand ngaphakathi kweeyure ezingama-24. Sele sihlangabezana nezinye zeziphumo ezivela kumabhanti angaphandle. Ke ngoko, ndibongoza bonke abahlali ukuba ngoku bangabikho ezindleleni ngenxa yezithuthi ezingabalulekanga. Ukuqinisekisa ukhuseleko lwabahlali ngexesha lesiphango esiphithizelayo ixesha lokufika emva kwexesha liya kubakho kwaye liya kunyanzeliswa ukuqala ngentsimbi yesi-2: 00 emva kwemini kude kube ngeyesi-6: 00 kusasa ngoLwesine, okanye kude kukhutshwe konke okucacileyo ngabasemagunyeni abafanelekileyo. Ngabasebenzi abafanelekileyo kuphela ekufuneka bekho ezindleleni.
Ngokusekwe kuqikelelo lwe-11: 00 am, ngoku sijonga ithuba lokuba iliso likaDorian linokudlula phakathi kwe-BVI kunye ne-USVI, nge-northeast mpuma yesaqhwithi sesaqhwithi esigqitha ngqo kwiiVirgin Islands, izisa imimoya yenkanyamba. Yisoyikiso yokwenyani kuMmandla, ngakumbi kwabo bantu banokuthi babe kumakhaya abuthathaka.
Okwangoku sicebisa abahlali kwezo ndawo zisengozini ukuba basebenzise izivalo zabo apho kufanelekileyo kwaye bathathe onke amanyathelo okukhusela amakhaya abo. IZiko leSizwe lokuSebenza ngokuNgxamisekileyo likwavule iindawo zokuhlala ezikhethiweyo ezingxamisekileyo, kubandakanya neCawe yamaSeventh-day Adventist e-The Valley, eVirgin Gorda, kwiZiko loLuntu laseNyakatho leSandi eMantla eSandi, eVirgin Gorda; Icawa kaThixo yeSiprofeto kuJost Van Dyke; iZiko loLuntu loMsele omde kuMsele omde; kunye neCawe kaThixo Yesiprofeto kwiLong Look, eTortola.
Ndifuna ukukuqinisekisa ukuba abasemagunyeni benza onke amanyathelo afanelekileyo okukhusela abantu bommandla. Siyaqhubeka nokuhlalutya lonke uqikelelo kwaye siphendula kule nkqubo itshintsha ngokukhawuleza.
Njengoko ndicebisile ngaphambili, i-NEOC yenziwa ukuba isebenze yiNkulumbuso kunye nam namhlanje malunga no-7: 00 ekuseni Le ndlela iza kubonelela ngendawo ephambili kulungelelwaniso lwezenzo zokuphendula. Iintloko zee-arhente kunye namasebe bebejonge inkqubo yokufumana iiasethi zikarhulumente kunye nokubeka abasebenzi babo nezixhobo zabo kuluntu endaweni yazo naziphi na iimpendulo ezinokufuneka. Abanye abasebenzi bakarhulumente baceliwe ukuba bahlale ekhaya, iiofisi zikarhulumente ezingabalulekanga zivaliwe ngaloo mini.
Iipatroli zoMkhosi wamapolisa iRoyal Virgin Islands zisebenza kuzo zonke iindawo kwaye ziya kuhlala zigada ngaphandle kokuba iimeko zingakhuselekanga ukwenza njalo, ngelo xesha baya kuthi bathathe izikhundla kwiindawo ezichongwe kwangaphambili. Abahlali kufanele ukuba bawagqibile amalungiselelo abo kwaye kufuneka bayeke ukuba sendleleni ngeli xesha. Amapolisa azakunyanzelisa ixesha lokufika ekhaya ukusukela ngentsimbi yesi-2 namhlanje kwaye sicela uluntu ukuba lisebenzisane ngokupheleleyo.
Ndiza kulikhuthaza kakhulu icandelo labucala ukuba libeke phambili ukhuseleko nokhuseleko lwamashishini abo kunye nabasebenzi, kwaye ndicele ukuba bavale ukusebenza ngokukhawuleza.
Njengazo zonke iinkqwithela zetropiki, uDorian uzisa ukungaqiniseki, kwaye kuthi kuthi abo bafumene uqhwithela luka-2017, iinkumbulo ezingonwabisiyo. Yomelela, kwaye ukhumbule ukuba eyona nto ibalulekileyo onokuyenza ngeli xesha kukulungela. Gqibezela amalungiselelo akho enkanyamba, hlala unolwazi kwaye ulandele imiyalelo evela kwi-NEOC.
Nceda ujonge onke amaqonga eendaba kubandakanya unomathotholo, iiwebhusayithi zeSebe loLawulo lweNtlekele (bviddm.com) kunye noRhulumente we-BVI (bvi.gov.vg), kunye nephepha le-Facebook le-DDM lokuhlaziya inkqubela phambili kunye neengcebiso ngokhuseleko.
Kubo bonke abakwiiVirgin Islands, umyalezo wam kuni ulungele kwaye uhlale ukhuselekile.
Ngamana uThixo anokusikelela kwaye akhusele ummandla.
Enkosi!
INTO ONOKUYITHATHA KWELI NQAKU:
- forecast, we are now bracing for the likelihood that the eye of Dorian may pass between the BVI and the USVI, with northeastern quadrant of the storm passing directly over the Virgin Islands, bringing hurricane-force winds.
- To ensure residents' safety during the height of the storm a curfew will be in place and will be enforced beginning at 2.
- I want to assure you that the authorities are undertaking all necessary precautions to safeguard the people of the Territory.
