But. In the future, do not forget how powerful this storm became. Can anyone even imagine being subjected to 180mph sustained winds and gusts to 225? I sincerely hope there won't be another any time soon. But.

Here's a shot taken 7PM from our deck towards Palmas de Cortez. It's getting darker, still no winds.

Rick hit us hard during the night.Started around 10 PM, had strong winds, plenty of rain. We lost power about 4:30, glad we have generators. It looks like the town of Los Barriles has power but not sure. Our roads are a mess.........
