“The radar footage is unreal...”
Yes, but the video shows cause for some hope. I also expected to see nothing but bare ground after 24 hours of grinding Cat 5 winds and 25 foot storm surges, but there are more buildings standing than I would have thought. It seems the shantytowns were washed away, but a lot of the infrastructure and larger businesses are still there.
I like the few Bahamians I’ve met, and the PM seems to be a lot more capable than the Gov of PR and the mayor of San Juan, so they will get a couple of bucks from me.
That’s not the island that got the 24+ hours of it! That’s video of Acabo... the island still under the hurricane for now more than a day (although it has deintensified some and the eye has moved offshore) is Grand Bahama... and that island is now all but gone, 90% under water.
