Exactly! At least then stores sold things people could use in their daily lives. Today there is nowhere to park downtown and nothing to buy. For your daily shopping needs you head to the malls where there is unlimited parking.
I was in the Wulff/Claridge Road area and it was a disaster! Cars slowly driving about trying to find the least flooded streets; awful and the water was so high! Clean the drains PLEASE or put down some more, something!
Hurricane Season in June-November every year. All of this goes to show the Bahamas really has no organized plan. Heard the lady from the Red Cross on the radio yesterday talking about creating a tent city (in Long Island?) but she had first to find out where she could get the proper tents and portable bathroom facilities from you; shouldn't you know that already? Silly me, I thought you're supposed to have a list of names of people & companies of who has what, and who does what. Why does it seem like these things are only occurring to them as they go along? If a hurricane hits this morning and leaves the country this afternoon an organization should be able to go in with their organized plan soon after. I don't see that here.
The FMN were just elected when Hurricane Andrew struck the Bahamas in '92. What a difference in response between the FNM and PLP governments! Then PM Hubert Ingraham took charge charge from Day One and was working with a plan; PM Christie...

News said a crew member's body was recovered. I'm sure DNA will be used to identify the person and return him/her to their family.
