4. I have my suspicions about Dean, that just hit Mexico
it was a cat 5 but mainly hit a nature preserve, however towns in the surrounding areas where the poor Mayan populations lived were greatly affected, I read that 150 homes were destroyed in one town. Many natives refused to evacuate and some hid from the police when they were trying to enforce a mandatory evac. And of course there hasn't been a peep in the news about it, I think they want the tourists to come back as soon as possible.
