And this is only the start of the winds going up here in Puerto Rico.There haved ben reports of wind gusts between 38-52 mph in central PR.

It is a miracle that I still have power but I fear that it will go soon. :(

Hey, I saw that too!
Umm, but Tom Terry had it (115, i think) on the WSR-88 Radar.
What else would take the roof off of a fairly new school building?

Luis, please stay safe.
we need your input and knowledge here!

Stay safe cycloneye. Was just looking at the radar - looks like pounding wind and rain for you all day.

I love Santurce. I remember when they first began running the buses the wrong way. A few people got squashed. I am a Palma Real native. Loved Miramar.

Those frozen gallon jugs in the freezer should keep your food chilled and give you something cool to drink till they get the power back up. Take care!
