It was horribly bad! Pure devastation..... school, churches, police station, hospital, prison, airport, electricity, court house, and many house roofs not made of concrete devastated!

God is good though..... He didn't send Jose.

Thanks for praying for us.

Happy you're safe.

Anyone heard from VOR ?

Thanks guys...
At 0501hrs a wind gust was measured at 224 m.p.h. it's amazing that anything is left on this island. Tremendous pounding.... scary growling of wind and the sound of object lashing against the walls and boarded up windows.. I lived through Luis in 1995 and that was a monster but this Irma was a beast.. Total devastation.

Great to hear you are safe. Heard a scary interview of an American who was at a hotel in St Maarten during Irma - blown out windows and doors, airborne furniture and appliances, and riding out the hurricane huddled in a bathroom. This guy said that the cars on the island that are still operable all have broken windshields and windows.

Glad to hear you are doing ok. A close friend of mine has a dear friend from there who was on vacation in Cuba, and has not been able to get back home. We are hoping for the best.
