Sunset a few night before the storm |
So we survived our first hurricane. Earl was upgraded to a Category 3 as it passed over us. We braved it out in our apartment which really wasn't that bad. Thankfully we choose to do that as the students who went to the school for shelter we held there until 9am today, long after the storm was over. Apparently the island "enforces" a curfew during hurricanes which was supposed to last until 12pm today but we broke that several times yesterday since we had to internet to know about it. Our water came back on late yesterday afternoon but we are still without power which makes our apartment a bit of a sweatbox so we are again taking advantage of the AC at school on their generators. We are now waiting to see what Tropical Storm Fiona is going to do. Looks like it'll affect us tomorrow afternoon however it will be mostly just rain and wind, nothing major or long lasting. We'll post some pictures from the hurricane and maybe a video if we can in a couple days. For now here's a few from around the island, before the storm. Don't forget to post your name with your comments if you post under the anonymous/non user posting, thanks!
