Residents of Bermuda are battening down the hatches as Tropical Storm Leslie became a hurricane yesterday (September 5) and remains on course for a direct hit on the archipelago over the weekend.
The Bermuda Weather Service (BWS) has advised that the latest forecast track for Hurricane Leslie brings it within 20 to 40 miles of the island early Sunday morning as potentially a Category 2 hurricane with wind speeds exceeding 90 miles per hour and Minister of National Security Wayne Perinchief has urged his people to take no chances.
I pray that there may be no lost of life from those wicked storms.
Keep safe Bermuda!
