I guess you didn't see my posts. It's very dry. They hadn't had any substantial rainfall until 5/4 when they got over 8" in one day. The island was very brown and they were trucking water in to fill the cisterns. We conserved everywhere we could. Five minute showers were the norm, turning on water only to rinse off. We kept an eye on the cistern constantly. Thankfully that heavy rain really helped. So it will green up in the next few weeks. On the down side, the mosquitoes will be fierce.
