Interesting system early this afternoon..While the MLC we were tracking yesterday opened up and has disintergrated another vorticity seems to have taken over. Latest Hi-res indicates mid-level rotation. Some observations over the islands indicate light and variable winds. Dominica which is SSE of the apparent MLC/LLC is reporting SW winds...Something to watch..

Re: Wave/Low over Eastern Carribean
Maybe this one is the one to watch; its convection has not utterly died like ex92L's yesterday, at least not on the eastern side, though I probably just jinxed it.

THUNDER AND LIGHTNING

What a terrible night, my worst nightmare, even with my eyes closed I could see the lightning! We had thunder, fireworks (lightning without a fuse) and torrential rain from 1.45 a.m. until 9.30 a.m. This is the longest thunderstorm I have ever been in. Poor Dominica, she really can't take too much more rain. We had very bad land slides from DEAN less than a month ago and now this. We have to be very aware of the Miracle Lake which is in danger of bursting the artificial dam which was created especially with more rain. This is a big concern to everyone here living in the area which would be affected if this were to happen. We are also aware that there is another huge weather front in the Atlantic heading this way which could form another hurricane bringing with it more rain............................................................ I am not able to report accurately what damage has been done by this latest storm but have been told there have been more landslides in the Trafalgar area. Cars have been going past us in the valley so our road must be OK. I shall go out later this afternoon and investigate. All we have to say is that we hope everyone in Dominica and the region as a whole is
