How is the road to the airport? My sister flying out tonight

Flooded you won't make it through that bypass road. One of the downside building an airport so close to the Caroni River

I was referring to the road from the highway. Anyway got through, at least that was OK

What's the weather in the west like?

Postby **toyolink** » January 1st, 2018, 2:25 pm

Well New Years day in Mc BEAN has been dry but overcast thus far, hope things continue to improve.
The weather over the last few days served to remind us of how real lifes challenges can be for many of our brothers and sisters.
I personally found the celebrations last nite a bit farcical.
........But continue to be hopeful that we all can make it better.

North Coast Reopen

Postby **toyolink** » January 4th, 2018, 12:42 pm

Well things are glorious home here, but family members due to go into JFK tonite and things looking rough.
Looks like our rain event experience has been reincarnated into a Norester on the eastern seaboard of USA and it deadly.
The global conditions just seem to support more pressure.

TriP · Postby **TriP** » January 18th, 2018, 2:43 pm

18-1-18-1:45pm Update: This event is being cleared. Expect traffic delays.

authorities need to consider paving the road from the Arima by-pass....this may be the only safe route to reach the bake and shark...

redmanjp · Postby **redmanjp** » February 4th, 2018, 1:59 pm

Humidity also very low today, my Acurite humidity temp monitor reached down to 50% this morning, still 52% now. Usually its between 65-80%. Guess that's why I was still feeling cold at 27C when I wake up this morning
