ROAD TOWN, Tortola, VI- With Tropical Storm Fiona expected to pass near the Virgin Islands this weekend, Acting Governor David D. Archer Jr has urged persons in the Virgin Islands (VI) to have emergency plans in place in case further action is needed.

Forecasters believe the system will bring heavy rains and windy conditions to the VI as early as late Friday, September 16, 2022.

According to the Acting Governor, already, the Public Service is taking steps to prepare based on established emergency plans and discussions within the Emergency Operations Centre.

“I urge all households and individuals to follow suit and have emergency plans ready in case any further action is needed. As always at this time of year, it’s a good idea to check on family and business emergency stocks, essential documents, and back-up communications,” Mr Archer Jr advised in a statement on September 15, 2022.

At 5:00 am, the center of Tropical Storm Fiona was located near latitude 15.7 North, longitude 58.1 West, which is estimated at approximately 471 Miles SE of Road Town.

Fiona is moving toward the west near 15 mph (24 km/h). A westward motion with a gradual decrease in forward speed is expected through Saturday night or early Sunday, followed by a turn toward the west-northwest later on Sunday.

On the forecast track, the centre of Fiona is expected to move across the Leeward Islands tonight and early Saturday, September 17, 2022, and move near or just south of the Virgin Islands and Puerto Rico late Saturday into Sunday.

    @the watch dog. The sharp machine can give you an Irma right now. The Almighty Creator aren't wicked at all only the one eye God in the illuminati pyramid for the devil on the dollar bill that say in God we trust o.k. people you all really need to wake up to see what's going on the Almighty Creator is not talking to these people and telling them exactly where the storm is. Think for a minute if you was banned from being outside during Irma how can these people be outside and don't tell me because of satellites because we live on a flat earth no curves you just see straight every directions. No gravity either because you can clearly see everything is in the dome. You can see the plane all the way up and nothing is getting sick up in the sky. The elites also teach us what goes up must come down so wake up use your brain. Look at the satellites pictures they show you its Cgi and computer people should see that. What's going to keep them up on a flat earth because the spinning ball is how you get satellites dumb teaching. NASA is paid on the dumb folks people are paying taxes for NASA when it's all Cgi they give you for space. Hollywood movies is the news all rim by the Rothschild,gates and all the wicked 15% of the rh negative elites bloodline. You need to learn your really history instead of the brainwash teaching one they give you in school. Hurricanes is made by man. They also give you the same eye for the one eye God in plain sight and you stay sleep. Wake up and save the kids they won't have a chance once we're gone. Pay attention to how they are trying to program the kids.

      You're a person in need. I hope you can get the help you need to get in touch with reality. It seems impossible for someone with your beliefs to participate in an online, internet forum.
