We just got up. WAPA is down but we fired up the generator and the internet is working. The storm went pretty far east of St Thomas but it looks like the east end of St Croix took a hit. The NOAA wind history shows that we got hit with tropical storm force winds. Doesn't look like any major damage to the house so all in all we were lucky we hope everyone else faired as well.

First thing I did this morning was check the Chocolate Hole webcam, and imagine my suprise that it came up AND was showing some sun!
I am soooo happy you all are okay!! I think it's time to celebrate! What a close call that was.
