22nd SeptemberHello world, this is Thriller seeker Teryn and I am heading to Haiti joined by my partner in crime Lalisa. It is said to be having a category 4 hurricane there soon. We trust that Haiti won't disappoint.
Hi everyone Lisa here. So excited to be going on this adventure.
HAITI CAN HAVE HURRICANES FOR SEVERAL REASONSHaiti lies in the intersection between the two tectonic plates of the Earth's crust (North American Plate & Caribbean Plate)Haiti lies in the middle of the Caribbean hurricane beltClimate change making hurricanes more frequent and more vicious.
Lisa: Oh no! That's so unfortunate
Because it's the eye of the storm hunny. It tends to be very calm and tricks a lot of people
As we walked into Haiti's towns, the reactions of people varied
Mom, why is it so sunny if there's going to be a storm?
I have to head to the grocery rn to stock up on my canned items.
WOOF!!!
Don't tell me you all really believe a hurricane is going to hit
Omg so many stuff?
While at the mall we overheard a chat between two women
So Brenda what's in your emergency kit. I'm so scared. I wanna make sure I have everything .
water and foodbatteries and chargersfirst aid kit and medical stufftoilet paper and toilet treespet supplies for Kumaflashight and radioI.D and documents (container)enough cash
Better safe than sorry.
LISA, THE SEA LEVELS ARE RSISING SIGNIFICANTLY AND THE WINDS ARE GETTING EXTREMELY STRONG. I THINK THE HURRICANE IS GOING TO COME SOON.
I think so. The water is getting rougher and the sand is also starting to shift inland.
At the sea we noticed more signs that the hurricane was approaching and that the eye of the storm had passed.
About 12 hours later the weather was the complete opoosite and we knew the hurricane was ocurring.
Lisa look the hurricane is starting. AAAH Yesss!
YAY! Let me grab my videocamera from my bookbag.
