Amazing picture of Saba!! Regarding the ocean being dead flat calm, we were on a cruise the week that Luis hit SXM. We were supposed to go to SXM and STT and of course, we were diverted to the Western Caribbean instead. I remember when we were leaving Grand Cayman, the ocean was just dead flat calm, except for the waves generated by our passing. It was spooky, the calmest water we had ever seen while at sea. We speculated at the time that Luis had sucked all the energy out of the basin. I have no idea whether we were right then, or you are right now. I sincerely hope the CALM continues for SXM for the rest of this hurricane season and beyond!
