More from Cozumel
. "4:00p.m. update from Cozumel"
In response to message #12
Alex just called - his Cingular cell was working - no land line -
about 10 inchs in the street luckly none in the house. He said all the neighbors roofs that were metal(other than concrete) are gone.
The damage 1/2 way thru this storm he said was worse than all of Emily.
The eye has just passed and winds are picking up again at 140 with salt water rain really hammering them.
Their attitudes are great and realize they have hours more to get thru this.

I just talked to my wife who is in our house in Cozumel. I'm amazed that our Verizon phones work so well. Bet that will change as soon as the eye passes. She went outside while the eye is overhead and things are fairly calm. The street is full (10-15 inches) and looks like a river running by. The side of the house is completely covered with bits of leaves and grass, as if someone spray-painted them onto the house. Over all, we're pleased that we've had no inside flooding. I reminded her that half is yet to come.
We're very concerned for the locals who have lesser built homes and pray that no one is seriously injured. This is definitely worse than Emily.
