Tortola and Virgin Gorda (BVI) Update

Gaston and the future Hermine?

Tropical Storm Earl is at Prince Edward Island. Gosh, I sure hope it doesn't affect the wonderful shellfish population.
 
Off Africa is another system, that doesn't look good at all.

I feel like a piece of the Virgin Islands has come to visit! Earl is a weak Cat 1 / Strong Tropical storm now. A few trees down.

I do prefer to visit the Virgin Islands rather then having them visit us!

Watch out for Gaston. We really hope that he passes by without incident. =
Pretty boats all in a row, no idea when this was taken?  but it's Paraquita Bay on Tortola
Since the sail covers are still up, this must have been before the storm, but no idea, the sender didn't say when they were taken.

Look at GASTON, he is definitely forming into a storm.  He is creeping along at 10mph (he's male, so does that mean he's lost?  LOL!)
