A storm surge could raise water levels by 1 to 3 feet along Puerto Rico’s eastern coast from San Juan to Guayama, including the islands of Culebra and Vieques, as well as in the U.S. Virgin Islands, including St. Thomas, St. John, and St. Croix. Similar surges are expected in the British Virgin Islands, likely accompanied by large and destructive waves.
Swells generated by Ernesto may begin affecting portions of the Leeward Islands starting late tonight, potentially causing life-threatening surf and rip current conditions.

@pringle need fu get back a kindergarten ,what are you,Tanny Rose incarnated? For goodness sake,the post was about the weather and you dragged it down into the dirt where you dwell. Simply confirming my description of the nasty,mudslinging, illiterate, bad-minded Labourites.
You want to see disorganized? Check ALP. The only reason ALP appears settled is the botox- faced dictator who looks like it’s painful to smile,bullying and dictating what happens. No one dares oppoose him.
This government WILL fall. It’s just a matter of time. Then maybe we will be spared the likes of you
