No news?

We noticed an increase activity of mosquitos Tuesday evening, increased winds then heavy rain kicked in. Woke up Wednesday to light rain and no internet. A friend from the States called early morning which I found odd which quickly had me ask myself if he was ok. I could not finish saying hello when he asked if we were fine as he just saw that Otis slammed ACA with 160 mph winds. I was shocked to hear that given the sun was coming out and there was light rain. I shared we are fine but no internet and needed to scramble as I had virtual work meetings scheduled throughout the day.

Tried to reconnect my internet service with no luck but was able to receive calls through my US carrier. Fortunately a friend hooked me up with temporary satellite service to allow me to connect with work. Still couldn’t see any online news and figured to wait.

We then noticed our dog was anxious, pacing and barking. I was on a conference call and luckily on mute when a strong loud rumble hit and I yelled out to my sweetie, shit, that was a strong earthquake.

It was hit and miss to see videos out of ACA to begin to understand the impact of Otis and he realization that communications were completely out.

Thankfully it appears no physical impact to Zihuatanejo but can only imagine many people with no communication with family in the ACA area and no travel to the area.

Can you please get all of this stuff straightened out before my arrival on Nov. 7th....:thumb:
