The 2008
Hurricane Report

July 23, 2008: Hurricane Bertha in the last week stormed around the North Eastern Caribbean Sea spreading rain and wind but not much damage. She then headed for Bermuda and badgered it with heavy rain and winds before moving off to the North Eastern Atlantic Ocean and calming down to tropical storm status. As of today, there are no major or minor hurricanes in the vicinity of St. Maarten/St. Martin and nothing coming off the coast of Africa that is worth mentioning. Let's hope it continues this way.

August 18, 2007: St. Maarten/St. Martin & surrounding areas.

Many island friends and business owners have emailed to let us know that Hurricane Dean passed by, but did little or no damage to the area's islands. A few comments follow:

"The island is fine, no problem at all, just some ruff sea, but nothing is broken…"

"We only had winds and big waves, no real rain. No damages at all for our island. It 's getting better today, sun is coming out again!"

"NO damage as far as I can see. Very little rain. Rough seas. Some wind. Sun out today."

"Nothing, nothing in SXM area including Anguilla, St.Barth. A little rain in Guadeloupe. Martinique got hit mainly because they were not ready."

"Here in St. Barts we only had some big rains, but absolutely no damage."
