For further information contact the UOW Library: [email protected] A slow reading of Olive Senior's hurricane story Abstract Over the course of the 20th century, recourse to satellite and radar technology, and the use of reconnaissance aircraft, has greatly assisted the tracking of tropical cyclones. In addition, data buoys are now employed throughout the Gulf of Mexico and along the Atlantic and Pacific es aboards to relay air and water temperature, wind speed, air pressure and wave conditions that enable more accurate prediction and monitoring of storm systems. But before the people of the Caribbean had recourse to modern instrumentation and communication, surviving a regular hurricane season was founded on sensitivity to environment, accumulated knowledge passed from one generation to the next by word of mouth; and what amounted to a rehearsed, even ritualised, set of practices. As Jamaican Canadian poet Olive Senior writes in 'Hurricane Story, 1903': In those days storm warning came by telegraph to Postmistress. Living in the bush, Grandfather couldn't see her rush to broadcast the news by posting a black flag. -

Impact of Hurricane Ivan in Grand Cayman
Impact of Hurricane Ivan in Grand Cayman Understanding and quantifying the hazards Dr Simon R Young Principal Consultant, GeoSY Ltd — GeoSY Ltd — Prepared by: Dr Simon R Young Principal Consultant GeoSY Ltd 1925 Valleywood Rd & PO Box 224 McLean, VA 22101 Montserrat Tel/Fax: 703 532 5788 Mobile: 727 709 0008 Email: [email protected] under contract to: UK Department for International Development For Roger Bellers Disaster Management Advisor for the UK Overseas Territories South Base, Grand Turk Turks & Caicos Islands Submitted: 31 December 2004 FRONTISPIECE A montage of Hurricane Ivan GeoSY Ltd Ivan in Cayman - Hazards 1 INTRODUCTION Hurricane Ivan passed close to Grand Cayman on 12 September 2004, buffering the island with strong winds, inducing flooding from storm surge and heavy rain, and causing coastal erosion through enhanced wave action. The sum of these hazardous phenomena produced major damage to roads, utilities and property, especially in the western part of Grand Cayman and along the south coast. This report presents the results of a detailed scientific study by the author of all available data relating to the severity of the hazards encountered on Grand Cayman during the passage of Ivan. As such, it forms one of two companion reports, the other concentrating on the impact of the hazardous phenomena on the built infrastructure on Grand Cayman and written by Tony Gibbs. A single summary report which merges these two detailed reports, along with a data CD-ROM, act as the final output for this DFID-sponsored project. Tropical cyclone impacts on the scale of that which occurred in Grand Cayman (and in Grenada) from Hurricane Ivan are fortunately quite rare in the Caribbean, and none has previously affected an island with such well-developed infrastructure and well-enforced building codes.
