00:00:00.320 --> 00:00:03.709
I'm just getting prepared to receive Hurricane Maria. 

2
00:00:04.239 --> 00:00:07.039
We never felt this kind of category of hurricane, 

3
00:00:07.039 --> 00:00:10.729
category 5 in like, a lot of years. The people from now 

4
00:00:10.729 --> 00:00:14.209
don't know what to expect, so we're just gonna wait 

5
00:00:14.209 --> 00:00:16.708
and just hope for the best. Okay, so this is my 

6
00:00:16.708 --> 00:00:18.089
neighborhood, this is my home in Puerto Rico. You can 

7
00:00:18.349 --> 00:00:23.369
see there's storm shutters 

8
00:00:23.369 --> 00:00:27.199
on most of the houses. Maybe that one a car port. In 

9
00:00:27.629 --> 00:00:31.689
this neighborhood we only just got 

10
00:00:31.719 --> 00:00:36.009
electricity back last night. So 

11
00:00:36.359 --> 00:00:40.579
that was after. I think 13, 14 days after 

12
00:00:40.579 --> 00:00:44.329
Irma, and we're not expecting it to last very long. 

13
00:00:46.269 --> 00:00:49.809
Okay, so, this is where the line starts for the gas 

14
00:00:49.869 --> 00:00:56.414
station. It's already raining. [ BLANK_AUDIO ] This 

15
00:00:56.414 --> 00:00:56.502
is my room, I don't have money for the hurricane 

16
00:00:56.502 --> 00:01:00.719
shutters, so I have to use trash bags to cover 

17
00:01:01.019 --> 00:01:04.589
my windows. As you can see I have a lot of them in my 

18
00:01:04.589 --> 00:01:08.069
room, it's very risky for the water to come in. And I've 

19
00:01:08.069 --> 00:01:12.429
put some towels on the floor, in case 

20
00:01:12.769 --> 00:01:16.809
water enters, and It's already dark outside so I'm 

21
00:01:16.809 --> 00:01:20.879
a bit nervous to be frank because I'm alone. But I 

22
00:01:20.879 --> 00:01:24.709
just stayed because for my dog. I'm a dog lover so I 

23
00:01:24.709 --> 00:01:27.159
just couldn't leave him here alone so. Come on, say hi. 

24
00:01:27.159 --> 00:01:27.709
[ SOUND ] He loves kisses. He gets a little bit scared so 

25
00:01:27.709 --> 00:01:31.673
that's why I'm just gonna stay with him. Right baby? 

26
00:01:31.673 --> 00:01:31.985
[ BLANK_AUDIO ] The power just went out. 

27
00:01:31.985 --> 00:01:32.751
[ BLANK_AUDIO ] The door is open, and all we got is 

28
00:01:32.751 --> 00:01:32.779
[ UNKNOWN ]. I'm going to try to do my best.

[ FOREIGN ] [ BLANK_AUDIO ] [ BLANK_AUDIO ] Guys, 

31
00:01:32.804 --> 00:01:35.629
it's 1 PM. As you can see See the electricity pole just 

32
00:02:07.169 --> 00:02:12.629
fell. It's a lot of damage. The worst is over but 

33
00:02:13.929 --> 00:02:26.139
there's still 

34
00:02:26.139 --> 00:03:37.139
a lot of [ INAUDIBLE ] 

35
00:03:45.519 --> 00:03:46.869
a lot of wind. So here's the backyard. [ BLANK_AUDIO ] 

36
00:03:46.869 --> 00:04:02.229
Pool almost 

37
00:04:02.229 --> 00:04:08.129
overflowing, we lost 

38
00:04:09.409 --> 00:04:13.434
three palm trees. One of them is half in 

39
00:04:13.434 --> 00:04:15.809
the 

40
00:04:15.809 --> 00:04:18.392
pool. We lost a bunch of branches. We have debris 

41
00:04:18.392 --> 00:04:23.149
from other houses And roofs and 

42
00:04:23.149 --> 00:04:27.394
this is the garage in the back. 

43
00:04:27.394 --> 00:04:31.579
I would say that's waist to shoulder height 

44
00:04:32.319 --> 00:04:36.519
water. It seems to be 

45
00:04:36.519 --> 00:04:40.839
filled with fuel and raw sewage. The street 

46
00:04:40.839 --> 00:04:41.144
in the back, this is in Ocean Park, that's Calle 

47
00:04:41.144 --> 00:04:41.418
Espa �� a. It's practically a river. I mean, this is 

48
00:04:41.418 --> 00:04:41.479
seriously disgusting.
