SUMMARY: I recently enjoyed a solo retreat to the British Colonial in Nassau, escaping the winter chill for relaxation and reflection. The resort offered a perfect balance of tranquility and connection. Each morning began with a cappuccino and time by the oceanfront pools before lounging on the private beach. Dining experiences, such as fresh fish tacos and Sunday brunch, were highlights, complemented by local flavors and tropical fruits. The resort’s charm, with its Colonial Revival architecture and ties to Hollywood, added to its allure. Located near Nassau Cruise Port, it provided an authentic Caribbean experience, perfect for both relaxation and adventure.

SUMMARY: A flood watch is in effect through tomorrow morning as rain continues today, raising concerns about potential flooding. Meteorologist Taven WHUR reports live from Tyson Park, where water levels are rising, particularly in creeks. There is ponding and puddling on roads, with water from creeks meeting additional flows from under the roads. The area has received up to two inches of rain, with more expected over the next few days, which could raise river levels. While no immediate overflow is anticipated, further rainfall this weekend could push rivers to critical levels.

The 10Weather team will be monitoring flood conditions throughout the day.
