Residents in the northeastern Caribbean
were Thursday still coming to grips with the damage wrought by Hurricane Omar.
The powerful Category three system lashed Antigua and Barbuda and its neighbours with heavy rains late yesterday and early this morning causing mostly flooding.
The entire country remains in the dark, owing to an island-wide electricity black out.
St. Kitts and Dominica also experienced flooding in some areas.
Puerto Rico recorded one death.
Omar is the 15th tropical cyclone of a busy Atlantic hurricane season.
As the system makes its way out of the area, forecasters are projecting further weakening.
