What to Expect ???

Post by MN_Bhoy »

Despite Dorian we still can't wait for our 530am flight tomorrow morning. Given the latest forecasts, can anyone give us a heads up on what we can expect if the storm gets close? Any feedback would be appreciated. We are originally from NY so we've been through decent storms before, however we're unsure about expectations on power, communications, but are concerned about really important things like surf levels and beach conditions!

Also, we spend most of our nights on the beach in front of the Beach Bar. We'd love to have a drink with anyone who stops by. You won't be able to miss me - 6'4 with a killer sunburn!!! :D

So true... You may already be in bed thinking of that beautiful blue color you can't replicate anywhere in the Midwest.... but yes, what's this leaving me in 60 degree weather? This is crazy! Feels like FALL!

How about you toast to the fizzling of Dorian as soon as you hit the island! Hopefully she'll fall apart. Here's to calm seas for awesome snorkeling conditions!

Cheers!

So far I hear most of the folks saying we will have some rain and wind but no one is alarmed! Hope to meet you while you are here! PM me if you want to get together and we can exchange numbers!

The Weather Channel is saying that Dorian is struggling. Woohoo! It is a beautiful morning in Estate Rendezvous. Scattered clouds and a light breeze. One rain shower overnight.
We will keep an eye out for you! We are a family of 5 and have a son who is 6'6". I will be wearing my forum bracelet so say hi if you see us!

Great first night!! Lots of fun at The Beach Bar!! Surprised at the crowds - felt a bit like spring break.

Leslie and Donna - would enjoy having a drink or two with you this week.
We usually end up at TBB for nightcaps on the beach. Will be in touch.
