Saw some pics of Frederiksted.....not too bad, and I figured they got the worst of it on the island.

From wunderground:

Maria raked the U.S. Virgin Island of St. Croix (population 50,000) with its outer eyewall on the strong (right front) side of the eye, between about 1 – 3 am EDT Wednesday morning, but the island missed seeing the Category 5 winds of the inner eyewall, which remained just offshore to the south. The highest winds officially observed on the island were at Cotton Valley RAWS, located on the east end of St. Croix: sustained at 99 mph, gusting to 136 mph, at 2:13 am EDT. A WeatherFlow station at Sandy Point, on the island's southwest tip, observed sustained winds of 100-104 mph, gusting to 137 mph. Even stronger winds likely occurred somewhere across the island's west end, but we don’t know how strong, since the wind measuring equipment at the St. Croix airport and the Lime Tree Bay Buoy failed.

It’s in Spanish, but the best source for Puerto Rico

Wow, thanks for the extensive info about St. Croix in posts 591 and 592! I will email that info to our friends who recently bought a small vacation place in St. Croix.

I pray all who rode out the hurricane in St. Croix - and of course on Puerto Rico, and beyond - all stay safe.

That wobble to the West saved St. Croix.

It appears that Puerto Rico has gotten in a few good blows.

I’m familiar with St. Marys, GA. Does your daughter’s area there flood often?

MOM - IN THE CONDADO AREA - LAST TEXT AT 7:30AM: Broken windows, brutal rain and wind; holed up in the bathroom with neighbor; water coming inside the apartment; trying to stay away from any flying debris & water coming into apartment.

DAD - IN OLD SAN JUAN - LAST TEXT AT 11:00AM: Rain and wind of Biblical proportions; I’ve never seen anything like this; your grandmother’s apartment is a total loss; we’re all holed up in a hotel and we’ll try to survey our other apartment tomorrow; not sure anything was saved - our windows only hold 120mph winds. We have our lives!


How are you doing CLL?
