The rainfall measured since midnight has jumped to 2.31 inches. Other parts of the island may have different measurements.
The NEVLEC electricity grid network has taken a few hits:
Please be advised that we are experiencing a power outage on the Gingerland Feeder and parts of Hamilton. This outage is a result of inclement weather due to the passing of Tropical Storm Ernesto. Restoration efforts will begin once the weather conditions improve. We urge everyone to stay safe and avoid any electrical hazards.”
The Gingerland feeder supplies the south and east of the island.
We also lost internet access for a while.
