Surviving Hurricane Fiona & Its Aftermath in Puerto Rico | This is what it was REALLY like!

On Sunday, September 18th, Hurricane Fiona made landfall on the souther shore of Puerto Rico as a Category 1 hurricane. Although its winds were not as powerful as those of Hurricane María, Fiona brought with it copious amount of rain that caused extreme flooding and landslides which destroyed roads, bridges, and people’s homes. This is what the aftermath was really like in Puerto Rico after Hurricane Fiona.

Special thanks to the team at Foundation for Puerto Rico for allowing me to document their Hurricane Fiona recovery efforts in Yauco & Lajas, Puerto Rico.

Thank you for this information Brik. The news kind of glossed over Hurricane Fiona. Glad to know what it's really like and how I can help.

When I heard category 1, I wasn't too worried for Puerto RIco. Then when I heard that the entire island was without power, I though, "Uh oh." It seems like the only good thing about Fiona is that it wasn't as bad as Maria. But she definitely disrupted things, and caused her fair share of damage. I'm glad that the recovery wasn't nearly as bad and prolonged as Maria, too. Either way, hate to see Puerto Rico go through this.

My kids' school, Luis M Santiago, received damage. They just started going back to school for a half of day on certain days at the high school until they can fix the school

Hey Brik! Thanks for posting updates about the hurricane and the aftermath. My students have been doing a donation drive for hurricane relief efforts; we will be sending some boxes to Florida and would love to send some to PR as well. Which organizations are accepting physical donations?

I live in Toa Baja. Everything was flooded
