Democracy Dies in Darkness
Tropical Storm Dolly presents a rare opportunity for hopeful relief in Puerto Rico’s struggles with drought. Emerging as a tropical storm on Thursday morning, Dolly promises to supply much-needed rainfall to both Puerto Rico and the Virgin Islands. Importantly, the storm is expected to avoid causing dangerous surges or wind damage to the islands.
As the region battles prolonged dry conditions, seen in areas like the Carraizo reservoir in Trujillo Alto, where the shoreline has significantly receded, Dolly’s rains are viewed as beneficial rather than destructive.
Unlike the usual severe conditions brought by hurricanes and tropical storms, Dolly’s path suggests a positive impact for the water-deprived territories. Residents can expect relief in the form of rain without the typical accompanying calamities.
