Yeah, that response time was completely unprofessional.<br/> Who knows, they may have saved one of their lives if they got there earlier. I mean they could have been already deceased, but it may have made a difference.<br/><br/>
So many police is this country are nonchalant when a real crime is occurring. But when they are ready to accuse someone, they are quick to beat someone up. smh
Wow, what a harrowing story.<br/> The sad thing is... this is probably one of the *better* experiences of many of the people there. <br/><br/> My heart breaks for Abaco and Grand Bahama. I know many of us have family there too. It's just sad all around.
No it's true. Well at least they are now saying a **Cat 3 - 115 mph** just before it hits Florida. Go to weather.com/storms/hurricane-central (But the **middle** of the cone has it slightly east of us. However these trajectories do tend to change.) <br/><br/> Storms always intensify as they move over The Bahamas unfortunately.
Another thing with the government schools is that you have a few schools that are fully air-conditioned. Therefore, if the power is off for 3 to 4 hours that means there will be no ventilation and darkness (some of the "inner" classrooms have no windows). <br/><br/> Plus, BPL said this problem will go on until **November**, exams usually start end of November and 1st week December. So what kind of first school term will this really be?<br/> Well you know the old adage... **he who fails to plan, plans to fail**!!
Yes, but why does Baha Mar get all this advanced notice of power cuts and the rest of the public does not??? <br/> They can post load shedding schedules online **more frequently** and be very **specific**. It's load shedding, it's not accidental!!! So they know **exactly** when they will turn off the power and **exactly what area** and **exactly for how long**. <br/><br/>
Why does Baha Mar get this **specific** information and not the rest of the public? Is Baha Mar **better** than everyone else?
Oh the PM offering sympathy?<br/> Well that's good, cause I ready to have a **funeral service** for BPL and the FNM at the same time if they don't turn this garbage around!!!<br/><br/> It's so ironic that the day the PM was there, was the day my power was out the most in **one day**. I thought you put on ya **best** when the head honchos come around????
