Me and my family just visited St. John from Pennsylvania in 2023 six years after the hurricanes there. I could imagine it had to be one of the most terrifying experiences you all went through with Irma and Maria two weeks apart in 2017.

@@JoshsDesk I was east of Naples FL for the storm... We didn't get hit as hard as yall but we were one of the worse hit areas. But, this is an easily googleable fact that you can just look up. Pulling numbers out of your ass makes you look dumb. The highest intensity irma reached was 180 (which is still absolutely mind-boggling to think about). I think you don't understand the correlation between mph and wind strength. 225 MPH winds would have ripped your home apart and killed you just from the force of the winds. Wind that strong have never occurred in any tropical cyclone (outside of gusts). The only landfalling tropical cyclones in the Atlantic to actually have those kinds of gusts at landfall were Dorian in 2019, and the 1935 labor day hurricane in Florida. And nothing has ever caused a 253 MPH Just do some research. I'm not downplaying your situation, I'm just saying your title is wrong.

@@JoshsDesk When people measure hurricane force, they usually use the 'sustained' winds. That may be why people get confused. A gust of 225 is insane and nothing to take lightly. But it is different than the sustained winds people can look up on record.

I know this video is old as hell but is it typical that people in USVI stay home during a huge hurricane like this?

Hi Mr. Bourassa, I work for the US TV network, The Weather Channel. We will be doing a series that features survival stories during weather events, Hurricane Irma being one of them. While looking for footage of the impacts across the US Virgin Islands I came across your video. I would love to speak with you about including it into the program. My email is aubry(dot)losito(dot)contractor@weathergroup(dot)com Thank you for your time! best, Aubry

St John is too strong to be killed by a couple of hurricanes. It will recover. I cant wait to return and WILL do so, hopefully soon

Wow. Sad, but great video that truly shows the strength, impact and residual devastation of Hurricane Irma. St. John is our magic place and we are there once or twice and year and will be back, hopefully in Spring. God bless you.
