Hurricane Luis at 6 of September,1995..Thankfully Luis deviated the track and not impacted directly Puerto Rico however we got heavy rains and some squalls.But the Northern Leeward Islands got all of Luis including ST Marteen where a couple of members of storm2k live and their experience was not pleasant at all.
