Huracán

Just a quick message so that I dont forget, dont worry about me and the hurricane that is here.... well tropical depression if it even is that by now. Hurricances generally weaken pretty quickly once they make landfall. The biggest threat is flooding in this region, but all the trainees including myself are in safe areas. Yes, landslides are definitely possible if we get lots of rain, but we wont be leaving our towns the entire time that the tropical depression is here and thus can´t really be effected by slides over roads nor slides in towns (since we would be moved if there was the potential for them in our towns. Peace Corps issued these mandatory stays until they know it is safe. So no worries. I am safe. Prayers would probably be more in store for those hit directly by the hurricane and those affected by the flooding.
