Has the worst passed? Looks like there was a lot of rain - having a hard time getting to the NHC website...

Wet -- placidly wet.
Try http://www.weathercarib.com if the NHC site is slow.
This might work too:

I saw a satellite loop of the rain that looked like the VI really got dumped. I hope the cisterns are full at least!

When it rains like this I always feel a little sad for the tourist, but love the sound of my cistern filling up.

Just hope that there is no run off from that monster home! That could be diastrous to national park land.

If today is the today you are asking about, I have no idea right now which day we are in, we had a great time snorkeling hawksnest. Just a light rain.
Not much sun, but it beats work by a long shot. Yesterday was the wet one. Either way I'll take it.

The rum and coke doesn't hurt either.

Forecaster Jones posted on Facebook that STJ received 9-10 inces yesterday and we should expect another 5 inches today.

If that amount of rain is correct, someone should carefully examine the Centerline Road erosion spot to ensure that additional damage hasn't occurred there.

All the best,
