Season over

For those that have read these pages regularly they will know that my family and I have regularly been impacted by hurricanes, the last one was in October last year when Milton made landfall just up the street from us, and we had to evacuate.

We chose to live in Bermuda and we chose to live 400 metres from the water here on the gulf coast of Florida, so no pity required, but I also spend a lot of time studying their impacts for work.

Nice to see Charlton’s Jamaican Addicks plus others with Jamaican roots donate to relief funds and raise awareness to the devastating impacts of Hurricane Melissa that ran over the island with sustained winds of 185 mph winds in the early part of this week.

That is a huge storm, stronger winds than Hurricane Katrina for example, which devastated New Orleans in 2005 and killed 1,392 people.
