Regn, oversvamningar och skolan stangd

Man kan ju tycka att jag ar lite gnallig som surar over att det regnat i tva veckor i strack. Men sa fick jag mejl fran Roda Korset. Det ar riktigt, riktigt daligt att det regnar sa mycket.

"To give everyone a short idea of what has happened the last 3-4 days here are some bullets of information:

- 8 deaths and approx 1500 persons affected
- the canal had to temporarily cease operations for the second time in history
- schools were cancelled for today so that traffic would not stop help from getting to the right places and so that schools in the affected areas can be used as shelters
- the panama government declared RED ALERT in the affected areas
-SINAPROC and the Panamanian Red cross activitade their Emergency Operations

We continue to help the Panamenian Red Cross with these late rain and flood support. We ask that you please take some time to either attend in person or elluminate this afternoon so that we can help our Panamanian brethren."

Sa nu slutar vi sura for egen del och oroar oss istallet for alla de som bor i skjul i det har landet. Det fortsatter namligen regna.

For var del ar det ingen fara. Vi far hushalla med el och vatten som numer barjar bli brist pa. Och vi kan inte aka pa minisemester i helgen som vi tankt, broarna ar begransad oppenhet och vagarna ar rasade pa sina stallen. Men skolan oppnade idag sa barnen atminstone fick sin skolavslutning. Aven om sommaren, som sagt, kanns mycket, mycket langt borta.
