Believe it or not, tornadoes are scarier. They come up out of nowhere, and it's only now with technology that people have a little time to prepare and/or get the hell out of the way. Hurricanes are huge and in many ways more devastating... but they give you plenty of advance notice. We're still trying to get Trump to forget about Mexico and put the wall between the Caribbean and NW Africa.

It was a perfect storm (pardon the pun) scenario, bro. Cat 5 hurricane.... less than perfect infrastructure.... worst path possible right through the island (no town was spared).
I had suffered through Hugo (1989) and Georges (1998 ), but they all bow to Maria.

Unbelievable. No place in America ever had such Devastation but Americans like to whine and complain about little things like a little bit of flooding

Adding to the misery was that communications were completely knocked out. Family members and friends living Stateside were horrified watching the TV coverage, and then not being able to reach anyone down here. The loss of communications wreaked havoc on gasoline and goods deliveries, which amplified the problems for millions of us here. I'm telling you bro, there was a lot of anguish during those first days/ weeks.

Still.... I'm thankful we don't have any tornadoes down here.

Tornadoes are the assholes of major weather events. A flood hits everyone, a hurricane hits everyone, tsunami, earthquake, everyone.....a tornado is like fuck Dave's house, fuck George's house, you're ok Tyler, you're ok Jane.....fuck you Todd!



I'm glad that you are ok. We get tornadoes here all the time. They are not as dramatic looking as they are out west. The hills keep them from doing as much damage too.
