Can someone tell me what the storm alerts mean. For example, right now:
The Emergency Operations Center (COE) increased the number of provinces on alert to 26.
The provinces on red alert are Elías Piña, San Juan, Baoruco, Azua, Independencia, Barahona, and Pedernales, while in yellow are Dajabón, La Vega, Monseñor Nouel, Sánchez Ramírez, Monte Plata, San José de Ocoa, San Cristóbal, Peravia, Santo Domingo and the National District, where heavy rains have been recorded since yesterday.
On green alert are the provinces Hermana Mirabal, Duarte, Maria Trinidad Sanchez, Samana, El Seibo, La Romana, San Pedro de Macoris, and La Altagracia, including Saona Island.

what does the green alert signify?
In the us green is a good thing but this doesn't sound like it.
obviously, they want to alert ppl to take precautions but just want to know what green alert signifies?
thanks for your help
