Awful to see on the news all the destruction. Can you imagine what it is like to know the hurricane is coming and you can't do anything about it but sit tight? My son tells me these hurricanes are getting worse because of global warming - I didn't know enough about it to understand this so thank you Anya for your explanation - it makes sense now!
Yes I get that Anya but this has been worse than anything experienced in many years . Is it not possible that all this nuclear testing may have had a very dangerous impact ?
The ocean temperatures are very high this year, easy fact to verify. Higher temperatures cause more water vapour to be sucked up by these hurricanes therefore making then much bigger. Fact.
Some of these islands have been so badly damaged they may never recover. Earthquake and tsunami in Mexico now.
I know these things happen in this part of the world but I can't help but wonder about these recent hydrogen/ nuclear bomb tests carried out by that "nutter" in North Korea.
I've read that it's just going to skirt the northern end of Cuba and all tourists have been moved inland. That was a few minutes ago on a news update Annie so try not to worry.
Holidays in the hurricane season can be hair raising. DD was once a bridesmaid in Cancun at this time but everything was fine. Hope he is safe and well!
I have been rather anxious, my grandson is holidaying in Cuba, it is now expected to hit Cuba in the early hours of Saturday morning, he contacted us today to say he was flying home tonight, the plane has been held up for three hours . I will be relieved when I receive his phone call to tell me he has arrived at Heathrow early tomorrow.
