Early Morning of Storm Tomas




Along the coast this morning in Haiti. Tomas was still winding down, but the wind and rain was tolerable. Obviously, the water had breached some of the sand dunes, but didn't break any sea wall in the area.




Some of the coastal roads and passes had minor flooding.




A few of the roads had more severe flooding but were and are still passible. This is the road to the school were a small river always crests its banks during major rainstorms.



Passing through town from the foster family homes, of course, we ran into a couple of the street kids. A few minutes later, we had five in toe. So, we fed them a substantial meal and gave them bottled water. All the couple of dozen street boys are just fine from the evening storm. They told me a couple had weathered the storm in abandoned cars and others under the overhangs of buildings in Cayes like UniBank.
