Update late because of lack of internet and electriciry..

TS erika passed through haiti very quietly. Just a day without sunlight. And some rain. Other parts of the country experienced it just the same or no rain at all.The rainfall in the dominican republic raised the water level in some rivers, which is good for the rural parts of the country. Let's hope the season continues smoothly.

Best wishes to the residents of Dominica, an condolences to those who lost loved ones.

Hi Gert ! Sorry was kind of busy and in fact I lost the secret email .
During strong El Nino events, Haiti is usually protected from hurricane strikes as most storm are destroyed or curves out to sea, paradoxically the same conditions that usually saved us (dryer air et wind shear) contributed the storm weak strength that took it on the collision course  with the southern Haitian peninsula. Fortunately, things were not as bad as feared; so far only two injuries have been reported in the Sarth neighborhood after the collapsing of a house due to flooding. In the southeast part of the country many crops were lost after strong wind associated with Erica. Many people were evacuated but Erica’s bark was less than her bite unlike in the Dominican Republic that received more than 600 mm in some location in the capital and the surrounding area between 15 to 50 mm were recorded. Most of the precipitations felled close to the border where more than 150 mm felled between 0 UTC the 28th and 7 UTC the 29th.

Hi Gert;
There is really no news to report.  Had some light rain and wind yesterday evening around 8 PM, some drizzle this morning but that's it.  This is from north central Haiti, about 39 miles from northern coast of Haiti.
Thanks for checking in,
Debra Lucien

It's been very hot and humid all day. Brief and light rain in the afternoon and evening. As of 10:30pm some steady rain has started but not alot of wind.
Hope this passes quietly and the farmers will appreciate the rain.
