Good thing the Phet lost power on its detour to Oman and was declassified from a class 5 tropical cyclone (like Hurricane Katrina), to a thunderstorm.
Rained from last night at 12:30, and is still raining 12 hours later. We haven't had power since four in the morn. Glad I have a laptop.
Raisa, that sounds awesome.
Went to the beach to check things out, and the government had basically blockaded access.
The port end of the city is underwater and has been evacuated.
