Hurricane Harold Havoc

What began as a low pressure system in the Solomon Islands on Thursday morning quickly zoomed past a tropical depression and a tropical storm and developed into a Category 1 Cyclone named Harold.  Harold has continued its growth spurt, and currently the storm is battering Vanuatu.


SITAG only sustained minor damages: a few trees down, loss of power for about 15 hours, and a flying chicken coop roof that resulted in escaped chickens and a little bit of a fiasco with dogs.  The hubby and me, wind and rain, scared chickens, excited dogs.  Memory making for sure.

Other areas in the Solomon Islands received major flooding with roads, gardens and bridges washed away.  And unfortunately, a ship went out in the midst of the storm and some people were swept overboard.  Add the chaos of the current COVID-19 situation, and I'm grateful for the surefootedness that the Lord gives us each day.
