Good evening everyone...Yesterday morning started off
sunny with a few clouds, and gradually became more cloudy,
with a short downpour late afternoon. Occasional thunder
in the distant, along with some lightening. Today, much
the same as yesterday, although no downpours, just an
occasional drizzle. There is a bit of lightening happening
around us, also with occasional thunder. Received another
1 1/2 inches of rain since the last post. The tree frogs
are out singing in full force. What a pleasant way to end
the day...Good night all...Ken

Good evening everyone...Yesterday shortly after 12 noon,
the Heavens opened. Rain, from many directions, depending
where the wind was blowing it. A few good gusts here and
there, heavy downpours, then lighter rain and milder
breezes. I don't think it ever stopped raining completely.
Still light drizzle today, moderate breeze, short
occasional downpours. Rain so far from Raphael here have
totaled between 10 1/2 to 11 inches, as of earlier today.
76 degrees at the moment with a moderate breeze, and as
most know, that is a little chilly!!! House closed up,
dinner in the oven!!! Enjoy the evening everyone....Ken

(hopefully) Good morning everyone. Woke to overcast skies,
slight breeze, and drizzling rain. Nothing to speak of
that happened overnight. So far have had approximately one
and a half inches of rain,(with more to come!!), great for
soaking in the ground. About it for the moment....Stay
safe and dry...Ken

Good morning...An overcast day here, the sun occasionally
peeks through the clouds. Had a few short gusts of wind
this morning, but still calm with occasional breezes. As
you know from previous posts, I usually am glued to the
internet watching approaching storms, which don't move
much in an hour... ( kind of like watching paint dry!!).
The cats already have their indoor shelter spots, funny
how they know something is amiss...Again to our southern
and northern neighbors, be safe.....Ken

Good morning everyone...We have had a few brief passing
showers overnight, with lightening and thunder in the
distant. This morning was partly sunny with occasional
breeze/no breeze... Starting to cloud up a bit., but still
pleasant. The calm before the storm!!! Stay safe...

Good morning everyone,
From the looks of the storm, I would have expected more,
but thankfully, it was a rather small event. Most of the
neighboring islands have expressed the same. Today
consists of putting everything back on the veranda, and
getting back to normal, hopefully for the rest of the
season. To our neighbors in the storms path, stay safe.
Have a good day everyone!!
Ken

Good morning, (so far)
Just heard the first thunder in the distance, so off line
shortly. Light breezes so far, light rain occasionally. We
have all done the drill before, prepare for the worst,
wish for the best. Stay safe everyone, will report after
the storm has passed.

Good night all,
What started as a dreary rainy day, turned into a sunny
blue sky, (a little humid) day. To bad something ugly is
coming up the path, and ready to knock on our door. Have a
restful evening everyone...

Good morning everyone,
Started raining about one in the morning, (that I know
of), and has been on and off since. Woke to a grey,
slightly breezy morning, with a little chilly temperature
of 78 degrees. Looks like this probably last most of the
day. Time for coffee....Enjoy the day everyone, may not be
as pleasant tomorrow.

Good night to all surrounding islanders,
We had a beautiful day of sunshine and slight breeze.
Tonight, breeze has picked up a bit, but gentle. There are
experts out there in the Caribbean, who give us great and
accurate comments to our island chain. Thank you every
one.

Good evening fellow islanders...Once again, a wait and see
with the upcoming disturbance, quite a broad area. I have
my mother to thank for a worry gene. I watch something
come off the African coast, and the closer it gets, I'm
watching it every hour!! My partner asks, "Has it changed
much?" I have learned to ignore the question. It is a
beautiful evening here, clear and breezy, perfect pool
temperature, (and it's clean). I assume it will get a
little more debris soon. Anyway, I'll be in touch. As
everyone says, stay safe, be prepared. Enjoy the evening!!
Ken
