Report from Puerto Rico

#1 Postby cycloneye » Tue Aug 31, 2004 3:12 pm

Nothing major happened here as major hurricane Frances passed as a brush to our north.From the miday time only a few bands arrived with some heavy showers and winds in gusts from the range of 18-26 mph and maybe a little bit higher in the mountains but that was it.I think it was wise to not open the schools here because you never know what would happen with a major cane passing to our north.So we dodged the big bullet but I send prayers to those who live upstream in the Bahamas islands and anywhere in the US where it makes landfall.

I am pleased that PR also escaped the worst of Frances.

Glad it's passing you by safely, cycloneye.

I agree about the schools. It would be really foolish to have all those kids on the road if it had moved just a little closer.

Soon it'll be your turn to pray for us ... :-/

Surely I will pray for the folks upstream in the Bahamas and somewhere in the US where this monster may make landfall.
