The thoughts and prayers of the people of
Belize are with everyone who is in the path of Ivan and who has been
affected by it to date. Even here on
Ambergris Caye we feel the presence of Ivan. Last night
the winds shifted - they are now very cool and coming in from the
north-west. Usually when winds come from that
direction the seas are pushed out beyond the reef, giving us
quite low water levels. Today is different. This morning
the sea is about a foot higher than normal and waters inside the
reef are sporting rolling surf. Ambergris
Caye is not in Ivan's danger zone, but what we see and feel here
today is an impressive reminder of the power of this
storm.
