A magnitude 5.8 earthquake occurred at 19:30:18 (UTC) on 09 November 2024, located at 79.4 km (49.3 mi) NW of Burica, Chiriquí Province, Panama; 98 km (60.6 mi) N of Pedregal, Chiriquí Province, Panama and 101 km (62.8 mi) NNW of Puerto Arguelles, Chiriquí Province, Panama. Final estimates from the United States Geological Survey (USGS) located the epicentre of the event at 7.497°N, 82.396°W, and at a depth of 10 km (6.21 mi).

The final runs of the CCRIF tropical cyclone loss model for wind and storm surge have produced
government losses for Jamaica , the Cayman Islands and for the Cayman Turtle Conservation and Education Centre Ltd. (CTCEC), with CCRIF designating Tropical Cyclone Rafael as a Loss Event. The government losses for Jamaica the Cayman Islands and the CTCEC are below the Attachment Point of their Tropical Cyclone policies and therefore no payout under these policies is due.

This event briefing describes the impact of rainfall on Panama, which was associated with a Covered Area Rainfall Event (CARE) starting on 31 October 2024 and ending on 04 November 2024.

This event briefing describes the impact of rainfall on the British Virgin Islands, which was associated with a Covered Area Rainfall Event (CARE) starting on 01 November 2024 and ending on 03 November 2024. The Rainfall Index Loss (RIL) for the Covered Area Rainfall Event was below the attachment point of the British Virgin Islands’ Excess Rainfall policy, therefore no payout is due to the Government of the Virgin Islands.

This event briefing describes the impact of rainfall on Sint Maarten, which was associated with a Covered Area Rainfall Event (CARE) starting on 01 November 2024 and ending on 02 November 2024. The Rainfall Index Loss (RIL) for the Covered Area Rainfall Event was below the attachment point of Sint Maarten’s Excess Rainfall policy, therefore no payout is due to the Government of Sint Maarten.

The preliminary runs of the CCRIF tropical cyclone loss model for wind and storm surge have produced government losses for Jamaica , the Cayman Islands and for the Cayman Turtle Conservation and Education Centre Ltd. (CTCEC), with CCRIF designating Tropical Cyclone Rafael as a Loss Event Event1. The government losses for Jamaica the Cayman Islands and the CTCEC are below the Attachment Point of their Tropical Cyclone policies and therefore no payout under these policies is due.

The final runs of the CCRIF tropical cyclone loss model for wind and storm surge have produced
government losses for The Bahamas SoutheastSoutheast1 with CCRIF designating Oscar as a
Loss E vent). The government losses for this region are below the Attachment Point of the Tropical
Cyclone policy for the Bahamas Southeast and therefore no payout under this policy is due.

This event briefing describes the impact of rainfall on The Bahamas - Southeast, which was associated with a Covered Area Rainfall Event (CARE) starting on 20 October 2024 and ending on 23 October 2024. The Rainfall Index Loss (RIL) for the Covered Area Rainfall Event was below the attachment point of The Bahamas’Excess Rainfall policy for the Bahamas - Southeast, therefore no payout is due to the Government of The Bahamas.

The runs of the CCRIF CWUIC model have produced losses for the Belize Water Services (BWS). The losses for BWS are below the Attachment Point of its CWUIC policy and therefore no payout under this policy is due.

This event briefing is designed to review the modelled losses due to wind, storm surge and excess rainfall calculated by CCRIF’s CWUIC model for affected CCRIF member water utilities, to be analyzed with respect to members’ CWUIC policies.
