Sunny Greetings,

I am on Anguilla where we are having a windy and wet day. It was a great day to hike to Windward Point. This was a challenging hike to the beacon at island’s end. All Trails and others list it as easy but the terrain was tough. We had lovely views of St. Kitts, Antigua and Montserrat. 

The seas have been rough all week at Shoal Bay East and Meade’s Bay. Otherwise, it’s a wonderful week for holiday goers.

I enjoy your island updates. Crown Weather has been my source for tropical weather news. Let’s hope the season is rainy but free from damaging winds.

Be careful what you wish for.  Rain FINALLY arrived last night around 9:30 PM – and never let up.  3.92 inches since then – rain rate few times during the night 2.75” – 3.00” per hour.  Found leaks I never knew I had.  Both cistern and pool overflowing.  Power been off pretty much island-wide since about 1:30 AM – for various reasons.  Genset working fine.

I think the rain gods personally designed Tammy to make sure EVERYONE got some rain – except little ole’ Anguilla.  Had 0.09 in. yesterday – 0.00 today.  Current satellite below.

- Not so terrible Tammy

Dear all Stormcarib correspondents,
Gert emailed me for a report for Hurricane Tammy from the east end of Anguilla. 
 I am at present the other side of the pond dealing wit the aftermath of Storm 
Babet, which has done untold damage, flooding, evacuations, fatalities and 
power outages down the east side of the UK, worst in Scotland. I have heard 
from my neighbour on the Searocks in Anguilla, and he said. Power out for 15 
minutes a bit of rain and blustery winds, so a non event it seems. I saw my 
friend Steve Donahue reported from the west end of the island with much more 
info.
Best to all, stay safe,

Tammy a total non-event here in Anguilla.  Passed to our East around 6:00 AM.  Rain = 0.00 in., west wind at 7-12 mph, peak gust at 7:00 AM – 21.  Still hoping for at least some rain for my cistern

Anguilla has been windy off and on throughout the day with the sun peeking through.

Now, at 6:52 pm and solid cloud cover, the wind picking up again... a torrential downpour has also started... but sprawly.  We are shuttered and ready for Lady Tammy

Dave and Gert...Thanks for the wonderful updates.  Stay Safe All!

Just went to the store – Best Buy and Flash doing a brisk business – as well as West End gas station.  Surprised at the number of people out and about.

- QUITE FOR NOW IN ANGUILLA

It’s been a quite few days here in Anguilla.  Few passing showers today but some sun and great weather for getting last minute stuff done.  Airport/ferry closed down but airport operated yesterday and ferries ran to SXM Dutch side – French side closed entry ports.  Schools were closed Friday due to teacher workday.  Looks like there has been a little wobble to the east which is good for us.  I’m in West End so hoping the additional distance from CPA will help.  Lawn furniture safely stored in pool (see below).More later if things pick up.
