[HCDX] ZNS Bahamas

[Robert Wilkner <rlcw@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

1540  BAHAMAS  ZNS1 Nassau  With hurricane Frances stalled over these
islands it is inspirational to listen to the dignified manner in which
ZNS
informs their citizens of the changing dangers.

"With power lines down the general public is restricted from this area.
We
have power at the moment and are doing our best to restore power
elsewhere.
If anyone needs to move call us and we will move you out....  How are
you
and where are you calling from. I think we have lost some service... How

are things going there. We have offices restored and call us and give us

information and we will come. By and large we can make things a little
easier taking turns at the microphone.  In this type of scenario it is
important that customers the danger of moving about because of power
lines
in the water.  People with small generator, who are in isolated areas
...use these with caution. Danger of using these improperly ....caution
until the hurricane has passed.  Water is the major challenge for Grand
Bahama, with the major challenges facing electricity.  The airport may
have
sustained substantial damage.  Once again we must say it again, people
with
small generator, walking about in the water with power lines down is an
extreme danger. You can call us at 359xxx   351xxx. Until power is
restored
we caution movement. When power is restored exercise extreme caution
because of falling branches. Do not get in water to repair small damage.

Should South Bahamian ?  ....get ready to evacuate.  If water is not at
your door, do not venture out. If water is already in your home sill do
not
go out walking about in the water.  We want to thank Mr. Johnson from
Grand
Bahama power. Last year we had one death in Nassau from walking about in
water
alone. We wish to avoid this.
            Prime Minister of the Bahamas assures all resident of the
country, not just
citizens, that aid will be impartial."
