Well, according to the news and to the messages from friends, the rain has stopped. But life is hardly back to normal.
The southern zone is completely cut off from San Jose, except by air and "virtually no road has been left untouched". Roads have either collapsed or are blocked by landslides (the better of the two for restoring traffic). Stores are rapidly running out of supplies. Over 20 deaths and 2000 are in shelters after homes have disappeared in landslides.
No reports of damage to our or others homes, but a vacant lot nearby apparently disappeared into the valley - the road just ends at a great gully!
Say a prayer of sorrow, thanks, courage and hope!
