Latest projection has the center of the eye even further south. Now less than 2 miles north of Beef Island. The eye is 50 miles wide. That means the eye wall will cover 100% of the BVI land mass, a forecast surge of 10 to 12 feet with 15 foot waves on top. At this point I am afraid we are looking at a catastrophy in the making. It looks like the North Shore is going to be wiped out. I doubt we will recognize Cane Garden or Carrot Bay come Thursday.
Travel is fatal to prejudice, bigotry, and narrow-mindedness, and many of our people need it sorely on these accounts. - Mark Twain
