This Friday, Boxing Day, is our LAST system test of 2025. Listen out for our alerts as you enjoy the holiday 🇻🇬💪

We'll be doing one last 2025 system test on December 26! No action is required as part of the test, but we hope you will take a few minutes in the coming days to improve preparedness at home or work 🇻🇬💪

If you live in the BVI, we are still looking for more feedback to help us shape the future of emergency management in the Territory! Please let us know what you think at

The 2025 Atlantic Hurricane Season ended on November 30 as another above average season, the ninth in the last decade to be considered either above normal or extremely active. Read more:

A reminder that we will be testing the National Early Warning Multi-hazard Alert System this Friday at 2:00 p.m. The public is not required to take any action as part of the test, but we encourage everyone to take a few minutes to improve preparedness 💪🇻🇬

🌐We must celebrate how international cooperation has improved people’s lives. 🌊 One success was the expansion of tsunami early warnings after the 2004 tsunami. Sustained investment in preparedness is essential. https://t.co/Tj9PIkGrHh #TsunamiDay #EarlyWarningsForAll

Finally, protect our coastal ecosystems. Mangroves, coral reefs and beach dunes are a natural defence for coastal communities! (7/7)

Practice what to do in the event of tsunami together as a community -- like in the annual #CaribeWave exercise in March! (6/7)

Build strong, elevated structures. These are not only more likely to survive a tsunami, they're also safest from hurricane-force winds and storm surge too! #ResilientInfrastructure (5/7)

Ensure you have MULTIPLE ways to get emergency alerts, so that if one system malfunctions, you still have access to information. If there is an evacuation order, don't wait to #HeadToHigherGround! (4/7)

Next, learn the natural warning signs of a tsunami, and remember, if an earthquake is especially long or strong, get gone! (3/7)

First, get familiar with evacuation zones around the Territory (download FREE maps for all major islands: https://t.co/ysiXRYHBJ8) (2/7)

Today, November 5, is World Tsunami Awareness Day. We can't stop tsunamis, but we can do our part to keep the Virgin Islands a #TsunamiReady community. Read on to learn how (1/7) #TsunamiDay

BVI, we know you have some great ideas. This is your chance to share them! https://t.co/g1PplF9xAr

The 2025 Atlantic #hurricane season has now generated 127 ACE (Accumulated Cyclone Energy), making it an above-normal season per NOAA's definition. 9 of last 10 Atlantic hurricane seasons have been classified as either above-normal or extremely active: https://t.co/r177mJdm29

Hurricane season lasts all the way until November 30. If you need some motivation to stay storm ready, this track is for you. Big thanks to Janine Karen Gordon for sharing her song and her talent with us! https://t.co/jnDAdL1Wu8

It's almost the fourth Friday, which means we'll be testing the National Early Warning Multi-hazard Alert System. System test days are great time to take a few minutes to check that you have batteries on hand for your emergency radio 📻🚨

As we enter the final stretch of the Wet Season, remember: heavy rains can bring risks like flooding, landslides, and coastal erosion. Let’s stay prepared and put safety first to protect our communities! @intraacpclimsa @EUtoBarbados #intracpclimsa #Eu #WetSeasonSafety

A reminder, this is happening today! Join to interact with the panel live; or watch this space for a link to the recording later. https://t.co/YV2mgub4z5

It's today! #ShakeOut with us at 10:16 a.m., OR practise earthquake safety procedures when it works for your household or team!
