Temperatures continue to soar in the BVI, but we are generally experiencing stable weather for the time of year.

As always, we are keenly looking out for any threatening systems out there.

Hi all
I am in the BVI and looking forward to waving goodbye to Erin.  We’ve been 
lucky that this Cat 5 storm hasn’t caused us more problems and that the worst 
of it has come in the daytime.  We’re not it of trouble yet, but it should 
start moderating soon.  Good luck to everyone in the path.

Heavy rains and strong gusts are impacting the BVI.

One of our weather stations has already recorded over 6" of rain today.

Effects, however, seem very varied across the territory - other areas are seeing less.

- Virgin Gorda update

It is really coming down now on Virgin Gorda.  We made final preparations for the boats and equipment at Dive BVI this afternoon and it really picked up around 3:30 pm.  We've had approximately 4 inches so far and street flooding is already occurring in the normal low places near the marina.  Winds have been steady and not too strong, gusting to 25-30 occasionally with the front edge of each squall.  Power has been off and on now a few times.  We are looking at a lot of rain over the next few hours as these heavy bands keep rolling in from the NW.

Outer bands of Erin shower activity are reaching Tortola.

Hoping that everyone in the region fares well.

As the start of the 2025 hurricane season approaches, your BVI correspondent is getting ready for on location reporting.

Here's hoping that the entire region fares well.
