I'm shocked at the amount of absolute rubbish people are putting out. Obviously fake reports, and I was watching videos of purported Irma damage to St. John online _before_ Irma had even reached the BVI. People posting about a CAT & hurricane and spreading faked NOAA charts online.

There will always be a couple of people who get a thrill by doing this, but the sheer volume of misrepresented pictures, texts and videos makes it difficult to sort out the ones which are correct.

I'm glad that the loss of life has remained low, with a storm of this magnitude it might have been much worse; so evidently the preparations of shelters and storm warnings/plans was as good as could be expected when
just surviving a direct hit by a category 5 hurricane can be considered a success.
