IN MORE PICTURES: It never rains but it pours

More pictures and videos keep coming in to DNO showing the effects the persistent rain in various parts of the country. We’ll keep sharing them with you.

A Disaster Management official told us that thankfully, there have so far been no reports of any death or injury and it is anticipated that the damage will generally be infrastructural. He said the ODM is planning to conduct an assessment on Sunday after which a more detailed report will be presented.

The ODM continues to ask residents to exercise caution and to move to a safer location where their residence is threatened.

Here are some of the latest pictures and videos coming to hand.

    Some of these situations are most frightening. May Mother Nature loosen its grip on Dominica. May God have mercy on all who are in serious peril and provide help where it is most needed. I sincerely hope there will be no loss of life.
