Overnight, BVI suffered extremely heavy rainfall (c. 6" was reported by our weather station).  Widespread flooding of lower lying areas was reported, but the clear up is making great progress: thanks to all those involved.

The BVI are currently experiencing mixed weather, typical of this time in the 
season.

We are all hoping that we, and the other islands, continue to avoid the worst 
of the still developing 2024 Season.

BVI continues to experience sporadic light showers and distant lightning.

Nothing to be concerned about.

BVI is presently experiencing mildly disturbed weather.  Small, short pockets of rain occasionally pass through, but nothing of real note.

Fingers crossed that the whole region continues to experience benign conditions.

Your BVI correspondent is now back on island after a trip away and is ready to report on the remainder of the season.

TS Ernesto's effects appear more severe than many predicted, but the biggest casualty was nature.  Many trees and greenery paid a heavy price.  We have enjoyed a good growing season this year and I suspect that the plentiful young growth on trees was no match for Ernesto's efforts.

Meanwhile, all eyes are on the next system which is developing.

The BVI are continuing to experience mildly unsettled weather.  Plenty of gentle rain (especially overnight) alongside clouds.  The seasons are a-changin....
