Bahamas are essentially flattened as per recent reports. Or in other words .... BAAAAAAD

The fact that there's a highway to Hell but only a stairway to Heaven says a lot about anticipated traffic volume.

It is too early for damage assessments.  BTC, local Bahama telecommunications company, is reporting widespread power

Folks asking for updates on Bahamas.  The simple answer is I'm not hearing any information out of the Bahamas, which 
is concerning in itself.


My big secret how I do network outage reports is people send me the information.  Usually, I get lots of random 
emails from network people about problems all over the U.S. and other places in the world. But Bahamas has gone very 
quiet.
