Saint Vincent, a small Caribbean island state, suffered one of the most violent storms in living memory. In the heart of the dry season, months away from the rainy weeks from June to September, the deluge came without warning of any kind.

 

Between 9pm on Christmas eve and 1am on Christmas day, 11 inches of rainfall were recorded. The consequences in the hilly, volcanic, forested island were catastrophic.
