Cancun radar problems

Not good... :(

Either the site has crashed or the radar dome has crashed (literally). Maybe it will correct itself the next image or for the next week technicians will be repairing the radar.

Looks like Em is making landfall just south of Cozumel right now, but northern eyewall is slaming the area.
