We have been getting alot of questions about Hurricanes lately. These are of course extreme storms that should be avoided at any cost. For those who do not know Jean and I were in Tortola (British Virgin Isles) in 1989 and witnessed the fury of Hugo a class 5 Hurricane first hand. As a precaution we have planned to be in the Caribbean only during the winter months when these storms do not normally take place. For the best information we recommend you visit the NOAA National Hurricane Center website at ~ http://www.nhc.noaa.gov/
