MINIMAL DAMAGE AS TROPICAL STORM ERNESTO BRUSHES BY ANTIGUA AND BARBUDA

Peak winds of 53 miles per hour from Tropical Storm Ernesto toppled some vendors’ tents and dislodge tree branches, but Antigua and Barbuda was largely unscathed from the storm’s passage. Streets were largely devoid of traffic on Tuesday as residents heeded instructions to hunker down in their homes to keep safe. Garfield Burford reports.
