Minimal effect in tourism areas
International airports operated as normal during and after the passing of Tropical Storm Olga, with the exception of Puerto Plata's International Airport where three flights after 11pm had to be cancelled due to the high winds. Airport operations resumed in the early morning. Some damage is reported to on the beach storefronts in Cabarete, on the North Coast and Samana on the Northeast Coast but for the most part, tourism activities are expected to resume as normal as the rains move west passing the island. Hotels are not reporting any damages. Golf courses in some areas need to wait to dry out, but regular activities are expected to resume nationwide shortly.
By 10am, all tropical storm watches and warnings for the island of Hispaniola were discontinued. Light rains continue in some areas, but reports from Puerto Rico indicate that good weather is headed our way.
Краткое содержание: туристические зоны практически не пострадали, аэропорты работают в нормальном режиме (были отменены лишь несколько рейсов в Пуэрто-Плата из-за сильного ветра). Немного повреждены пляжи в Кабарете и Самане. Отели о каких-либо повреждениях не сообщали. А вот поля для гольфа промокли нафик, и надо ждать пока высохнут.
к 10 утра ливневые дожди на всем острове Испаньола прекратились, сообщения из Пуэрто-Рико внушають уверенность что в ДР идет хорошая погода.
