Rain has been falling steadily since late this afternoon...but the wind speed, though increasing, is only about 10-15 mph.
Many thanks to all of our readers who have sent wishes for our safety. Unfortunately I have not had the energy to answer questions. Please be assured that all is well as I write. Of course, we are expecting hurricane force winds and high tides sometime tomorrow. I will keep you posted as I am able.

ReplyDeleteThose who are sincerely concerned for your welfare would not have been expecting any answers. Grateful for the great job you have done keeping us aware, but I don't imagine the power can last much longer- so we'll hear from you...when we hear from you.
ReplyDeleteYour posts are much more peaceful than the news! Take good care on your beautiful island!
