I am back after Maria

#1 Postby cycloneye » Sun Nov 19, 2017 3:17 pm

Hi to everyone as I am back after Maria made landfall in Puerto Rico on September 20th.I am fine as well my family.Thanks to all that asked about how I fared after that powerful cat 5 slammed Puerto Rico.Yes,despite being a cat 4 at landfall (Only a few mph from a 5),my take is it will be upgraded to cat 5 after all the analysis is made and it may take a few years like what happened to Andrew.

Welcome back Luis, I am also glad you are safe and doing well! Been praying for all the victims of this storm and the others, always brings a sigh of relief to me that someone we all care about here is doing OK.

Welcome back, Luis! I'm glad that you and your kin are safe! I am discouraged at the lack of coverage here on the mainland! So much of the island is still suffering from blackouts, sanitation issues, and healthcare crises, to not mention debt! Neither can one can forget the rest of the eastern Caribbean...Maria and Irma were storms for the ages, unfortunately! Relief to the affected areas should be a bipartisan issue, especially given Puerto Rico's status as an American territory! Puertorriqueños are Americans and as worthy of assistance as us mainlanders! Puerto Rico must be rebuilt to withstand the next major storm...

Hey Luis glad all is ok with you and family it was surely a devastating blow to PR. I could see an upgrade to cat 5 in time we shall see.

Good to have you back.

You need to follow David Begnaud, a journalist for CBS on Facebook. This guy is amazing with his reporting for PR and what he has done for the people there.

And welcome back Ceye!!!! You were most definitely missed!
