Yes we watched that, we could see it from our pad, this has been a regular thing, several people have died here but the stupid sods never seem to learn and it still keeps happening, I have a photo somewhere, will see if I can find it.
Hardly any here... not enough to make a puddle....until last night ....this morning all back to sunshineArecife took a bit of a hit, mostly down to the perennial poor drainage problem. Didn't see much rain here darn sarf.
Going up to Arecife shortly then Calero to meet friends for lunch so it's all normal again now.
