I remember living in Jamaica and every year around this time, we were always preparing for a hurricane to hit sometimes we would get lucky but not this year. I hope it doesn’t damage my little Island too much.

Thanks very much for the report and the concerns. Unfortunately it’s what we face every year, so to manage the anxiety we see the preparedness as routine. Keeping alive is the number one priority. Stuff gets replaced, buildings, roads, infrastructure can be rebuilt. Of course we’re always grateful for the international support! 🙏🏾👍🏾🤗☀️🏝️
