Residents in Antigua say Hurricane Erin has so far brought limited disruption, with conditions across the island described as largely manageable.<\/p>

People on the north side reported only brief overnight rainfall, with skies remaining grey but no \u201cstorm-like\u201d conditions developing. Others noted that the day had so far seen light showers and cloudy weather, but nothing severe.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Authorities continue to advise residents and visitors to remain alert, as Erin moves away from the northern Leeward Islands.<\/p>\n
