Earl is the first hurricane that passes near Puerto Rico this year. It was a scary one because it was already a classified 4 hurricane before coming nearer. After Earl, there's another storm, Fiona, but it will not come so close- we hope.
What happened yesterday night and this morning? Well, a little while after I said goodbye on Twitter, we went out of electricity, water service went almost out, too. In the afternoon Mom allowed me to be in the garage, but at night she didn't let me out. I wanted to go to my funpark, but she said no, so I got grumpy. She wanted to sleep, but I was miaowing and acting all stressed out. So, she put a table at a side of a close window for Prince and me to see outside the house. I liked that and stayed calm the rest of the night. Prince liked it, too, and stayed there until the morning.
He even took a bath there.
During all night, the winds were making a lot of scary sounds and it rained a lot.
I got scared with the thunderstorms and hide under a chair. My sister Kala gets so nervous with that kind of noises that she starts to pant like crazy.
But around the island there were some floods, some people had to leave their homes and go to shelters and there were thousands of houses without electricity (http://www.elnuevodia.com/fotodetalle-puertoricobajoelazotedelhuracanearl-769539.htmll). The worst part was at Culebra and Vieques islands, two of PR's municipalities and the two most exposed to the winds of Earl.
At home, it was raining until early in the afternoon. Then, Mom and The Other One, went out to clean the backyard; they didn't had to go to work today, everyone was free. They cancel work and classes. Me? Well, I had to stay inside all day, sleeping, until Mom cleaned the funpark, that was full of leaves and small branches. The rain already stopped and the services are back (water and electricity). Everything is normal again. Thanks for worrying about us, I appreciate it.
Ola kala!

ResponderEliminarWe are so glad that you didn't get hit too hard - the news made it sound like it would be just awful, and then they were saying Fiona would be right behind it, but now it sounds like it is going a different way, which is good! We hope that everyone who was badly affected will be ok - we know it is headed towards our east coast friends now, so it isn't over yet! Earl is kind of a jerk!
