That Ian looks like it will become a powerful dangerous P.I.T.Azz later this week for the FL Gulf Coast and Southern Georgia/Alabama.
Despite all what happened due Fiona, we are on the really full lucky side this season so far here in DR.
And conditions out there East on the Tropical Highway are good enough to produce/allow any size/strength of stormy kinda shi.t .
We have little dry air amounts out there, none near the Windward/Leeward Island nor over the Caribbean Sea.
Areas with windshear out there are small patches and none on the high side.
We have to keep our fingers crossed and the ones who believe in such keep their prayers going, so that it will stay this way.
This Season look's shifted backwards this year, late start and we can await a late finish.
I do not believe that it will be over by end October, which it usually is for our region.
If we get only one more " Fiona" this season, then we can consider ourself very lucky and should start playing the Lottery for a living.
Keep your places/homes ready for hardware staff, so you can dig in quickly at any time.
To understand how favorable conditions are, look on Ian.
Now, SW of Jamaica, a simple TS with 50mphr winds, a centra pressure over 1000mb.
Awaited:
By just early Tuesday morning a Mayor Hurricane over the Western Tip of Cuba approaching quickly the NEern US-Gulf Coasts with still quickly Rising powers.
Conditions are top for storm development, hence for the next weeks to come we will see them growing quick and as Fiona they do not collapse that easy or even rise powers even over Land right aside our high DR mountains.

I spent also the first 3 days in my office chair, the only place where i did not feel much pain, lol.
That shi.t is not funny by any means.
Gosh I am so pleased that Ian gave us a miss. That looks like a very very nasty SOAB. Can you just imagine how Guandules or Guachupita would look after a visit by Ian?
Seeing the news reports of the aftermath of Ian in Florida, much looks like a war zone. Hope any DR1ers out there are OK. Many areas are suffering power blackouts, so many could be fine but no way to connect online.
Orlando area, which has a sizable Dominican community, seem to be hit hard with the floodings.

Depends. Since I am in Cabarete. I will stay where I am. No reason at all to leave in storm season.
For others on the South or East coasts of the DR, perhaps Jarabacoa or other mountain town?
I was just there and in Constanza, which I cannot recommend, but would likely be quite safe as well.
There still have never been hurricane force winds in the Cabarete/Sosua area.
A couple of days without Edenorte thanks to Ian, so I ran a generator to charge batteries until power was back
did you find it in country ??? where ???? thanks

October 12th, nothing further on the maps so far.
Our dry air shield opened up today and show's a tiny runway on the southern lane,
but windshear is all over the tropical atlantic still on the very rough side of the scale,
so we should stay fine for a number of more days.
Hey,
how is the weather on the Island?
I am still on freezy german nights over here on the other side of the big pond.
7 days til touch down in the sunshine. Darn, it will be 8 days, as I will arrive on the evening flight, lol.
Fingers crossed that we do not get any other line up for this season.
Cheers

Looks all really good for us so far.
While SST Temperatures are still high and easy favorable for storm development on our tropical highway
and barely any dry air masses anywhere out there to hinder development,
We have since a while a steady high Windshear over almost all of our Tropical Highway between Western Africa and the Caribbean,
so something big to come up is actually very unlikely.
Ocean Surface Temps will stay up on favorable levels for many more weeks to come,
so we stay on the watch out, but so far all looks good for us Islanders.
Hey, just purchased the first 3 young cows for a own breed start on the lil Ranchito,
they will move over here to their new home before Christmas.
Island Life is def The Best

The Invest over the SEern Caribbean Sea will not become a problem.
While the Ocean's Surface is nice hot there, the windshear over the Caribbean Sea is at the moment too high to allow a significant forming of a storm there.

Island Life for us is expected to stay beautiful and safe for this week,
Whole TS Nicole could become a mayor P.I.T.A. for the NWern Bahamas and Florida,
as conditions look favorable for development on it's path for the next 48hrs,
so this could become quickly a Hurricane force.
Again, nothing expected from any side for us Islanders here in DR.
