Hi all from The Unspoiled Queen. The total amount of rain fall for the month of April that I have recorded is 5 1/2 inches. This has brought up the level of water to full in most cisterns and the island has started to take on that lush and tropical green again. The repairs to the harbor have been completed. Keep safe Hey Linny wish you where here. Vince _________________________________________________________________ Express yourself instantly with MSN Messenger!

Hello all. The month of November has given The Unspoiled Queen a great amount of precipitation. Some rain guages have measured over the 8" inch mark. My rain guage filled to the six and overflowed. I will have more details in my next update. As in the previous mail the island is as green as can be. I do not have any photos to share with you but maybe one of the other correspondents will post one. Otto is no threat to our islands. Once again Gert thanks for your most valuable input and info during the season. _________________________________________________________________ Express yourself instantly with MSN Messenger!

Hi Gert, Greetings from Saba. Here is some info concerning the rain fall amount which I recorded for the month of September. The total rain fall for the month of Sept 2004 which I have recorded was 4 1/4 " The weather for the month of Sept was ok with a near miss from T.S Jeanne which sent some heavy swells and surf around the island especially at the harbor which is STILL under the reconstruction/repair stages and has been for queit some time. One small boat was completly destroyed during the passing of Jeanne and some coastal dirt roads at the harbor area were washed out. Today the winds are also light and the vis looks greater than 10 km. once again thanks for your valuable info during this hurricane season which is not over by any means.

This was around 16:45 Spetember 15, 2004. There were many people enjoying a drink and looking at the big waves on the Fort Bay as they came over the small and big pier. The cargo boat Mr. Ted just offloaded in time before the seas started coming over the big pier. Maria Zagers |

A close neighbor of mine recorded a wind gust of 63 mph at 5:30 pm Seas at the harbor were very large and the swells were covering the both piers. one boat was destroyed and some took shelter in the area of Wells Bay. There has been continous light rain since yesterday and we have not seen the sun as yet for the day as it is completly overcast Some trees have lost a few small limbs and leaves. The wind is still in a southerly direction. Flights were cancelled after midday yesterday and have resumed this morning. Electricity was shut down as a precaution yesterday at 3 pm and was returned to normal at 10:00 am this morning island wide.

The winds on Saba are now blowing out of the SE at 24 kt with gusts at times. Vis + 10 km rain showers to the south of the island seas look rather choppy. I suppose the winds will become stronger and shift around some more as the system passes close to our area. will send an up date if need be at a later time. _________________________________________________________________ MSN 8 with e-mail virus protection service: 2 months FREE* http://join.msn.com/?page=features/virus |

Saba had a nice wetting from a rain shower yesterday afternoon, around a half inch or so, no winds from Frances to talk about. Most of the boat owners either secured their vessels by taking them out of the water or sailing to St Maarten for the lagoon protection. Government ordered all of their buildings to be secured and the school children have no school today. Winds on Saba at this time are Calm and no rain. Some of the surrounding islands are still visible. large swells can also be seen. Vince. _________________________________________________________________ MSN 8 helps eliminate e-mail viruses.
