So we had a massive islandwide powercut from about

9.00pm last night until a few minutes ago here in Jamaica.
This is highly unusual.

You cannot imagine the rumors but the big one was whether the global bully invaded Cuba.
PHEW! Apparently not.

1. When these things happen...

Anymore, it's a mind-fest of wondering what happened until the services come back and you find out what really happened.

Glad you're back!

2. One of the radio stations

Has folks calling from all over the island letting us know if their power is back.
Can’t wait for details. This was massive. A short outage maybe twice a year is the norm. Islandwide without a hurricane is an event.

13. Thanks for the video. I really wish radio people in the US were as professional and focused as that lady

in the video. It makes such a difference to listen to someone who sounds intelligent, thoughtful, conscientious, and respectful of others.

The ones we're accustomed to wherever I've been for far too long are far too informal, overbearing, tedious, and irritating. I got sick of their trying to be entertaining and chatty and popular instead of doing their #$#*! jobs, and respecting the reason people even turn on their radios, tvs or whatever.

I wish she knew how worthwhile she sounds!

Sure glad you're back to normal with electricity. Just an hour without it in a house or apartment can be unnerving.

3. Glad assolini hasn't invaded yet another country & that your power is back up.

Sadly, power outages here are the norm, although not usually for more than a few hrs.

The US warship left yesterday. Don’t know where it is now.
Leave Cuba alone.
