Re: current weather
We have a late season visitor in the form of Hurricane Tomas who should be passing us by on Tuesday on his way to Jamaica!!! At the moment St Lucia and St Vincent have the pleasure of his company and the forcasters aren't sure whether he will continue west and pass to the south of us, or turn north and cross Haiti. We might get this years beach hurricane party after all.
Well - now he has slowed down and split into 2 - one going through the channel between Cuba and Haiti, and the other coming up the Cibao valley across our half of the island overnight tonight on Friday. Just overcast all the time with light rain and mild gusts of wind so far. Projected to pass us in the middle of the night (of course!) and we fear the rain more than the wind. I just wish my hugely tall Sabas didn't have such big bunches of fruit on them!! It is nearly 5pm and getting really dark - no beach party for this one!
