Question Bavaro & Punta Cana – Weather Knots to Go There?

Bavaro & Punta Cana - Weather Special Update Thursday, Sept. 16

It just about noontime. Overcast with rain. The wind is from the SSW at about 40 mph / 34 kt with some higher gusts. The temperature is 82 F / 26 C. Humidity is at 90%. It appears with each passing hour the winds continue fade.

There will be plenty to do to after this encounter with Jeanne.

Regards,
PJT

I just spoke with my boyfriend in Higuey about 45 minutes ago...said the wind was picking up again but everyone there was fine. Lots of wet floors and trees uprooted but he said the majority of the homes were intact. Hope that doesn't change!!!

I spoke with one of the directors of the Barcelo hotels in PC and he confirms that there is extensive damage to roofs at the casino and many restaurants. No power and water and 4,500 guests, ouch!

I have not heard anything, so maybe no news is good news for now.

I also have more clients coming on Monday, but staying at the Melia.
They did call today, but have no worries about traveling there...

Default Sunscape

Has anyone heard anything about the Sunscape Punta Cana Grand? From the maps that I have it looks that it may have taken a direct hit.

Thank you for any possible information,

Heather

Let's try to keep the posts on what has happened with Jeanne in the same place, so they are not all over the place. Let's keep this thread open for information on the weather in Punta Cana area, not the storm damages or not.

Please feel free to post inquiries on the storm at http://dr1.com/forums/showthread.php...890#post237890
