Hurricane Damage In Dominica

I was in Singapore when Hurricane Dean went through the Caribbean, but I have been trying to contact my friends in Dominica since I returned. I finally got through a while ago. Three died as a result of rock slides caused by the heavy rains. Most of the homes survived with minimal damage, but almost all the crops were destroyed. It will be hard on the nation to have to live on imported foods as they wait for the land to once again produce the affordable provisions they depend on for their sustenance. Thankfully the island is very verdant and will replenish in a few weeks.
