Hurricane does full frontal on Belize

[occasional thoughts]

I've been to Belize I'd say 6 or 7 times, once when it was British Honduras and the rest subsequent to its independence in 1981. I like the country and wish it the best. I heard on a U.S. newscast yesterday that it had been hit full force from the sea side the day before, but nothing on our local media. Any updates?

BELMOPAN, BELIZE — Hurricane Earl has weakened to a tropical storm after making landfall in Belize early Thursday as a Category 1 hurricane. Hotels along Belize’s coast and the low-lying islands offshore had already pulled in awnings and beach chairs as the rains from the category-1 storm began whipping the coast Wednesday evening.

Ah, Earl. Remember the Dixie Chicks had a point-blank song about and Earl and what he deserved.
