I had not heard anyting about this until this morning.

It seems the whole island lost power due to a fire at the generation plant.

They are mostly restored. I cannot imagine no air conditioning down there. That would definitely be on the list.

Rick, ALOT of people down there don't have ac. Some people don't have windows, just shutters. When I was there we asked a bartender what's the coldest it gets down there! His reply, I lived here 30 years and it got down to the low 80s once.

When I was there - while it was warm, the humidity level was low with an nice trade breeze.

No, sir. I'm not falling for any of that. If I lived there I'd work and live in a meat packing locker.
