The wind when it was out to sea has been under-reported somewhat. They claim to have issued warnings of this from a full two days before a LPA even formed which seems rather odd. Even on there they are downplaying the damage.There are rumours related to the loss and damage and people should not believe them. The State-owned media has released information and news. Relief and rehabilitation works are being carried out as a national duty. People are to inform the local authority if they find those who spread rumours.
Probably the best use of a picture I've ever seen.
