1 | Haiti: Earthquake, Cholera; Tomas Too? | Haiti: Horohorontany, Kôlera; Tomas koa? |
2 | Tomas, which got the region's attention as a Tropical Storm before being upgraded to a Category 2 Hurricane as it whipped its way across the windward islands, has been downgraded. | Navarina sokajy i Tomas, izay narahin'ny faritra maso amin'ny maha tafiodrivotra tropikaly talohan'ny nivoarany ho rivodoza mahery sokajy faha-2 azy ka nandrava izay hitsin'ny diany tamin'ny namakivakiany ny nosy madinika maro. |
3 | It is now back to its original status as it heads towards Haiti. | Niverina tamin'ny heriny teo aloha izy rehefa nitodi-doha nankany Haiti. |
4 | The system still poses a peripheral threat to neighbouring islands like Jamaica, but Caribbean bloggers are hoping that Haiti will be spared any further devastation; the country is still grappling with the fallout from the January 12 earthquake as well as a recent cholera outbreak. | Mbola loza fanairana ihany izy ho an'ny nosy manodidina tahaka an'i Jamaika, fa nanantana kosa ireo mpitoraka bilaogy Karibeana fa tsy ho tratran'ny faharavana i Haiti; mbola miavotra noho ilay horohorontany nitranga ny 12 Janoary teo sy ilay areti-mifindra Kôlera ihany koa izy. |
5 | The Livesay Haiti Weblog is praying that Tomas “grows weak/changes course”; real hope for haiti acknowledges that the storm's projected path is “not good”. | The Livesay Haiti Weblog dia mivavaka mba “hihena hery/hiova lalana” i Tomas; real hope for haiti dia mahalala fa “tsy tsara” ilay zotra hodiavin'ity tafio-drivotra ity. |
6 | The blog later reports: | Mitatitra ity bilaogy ity avy eo: |
7 | The exact timing and location of this turn is still uncertain, but the computer models have come into better agreement that Haiti or Jamaica are the most likely targets of Tomas. | Tsy mbola tena voafaritra mazava ny fotoana na ny toerana hisian'ny fiovan-dalana, kanefa ny sary avoakan'ny dia mametraka fa i Haiti na i Jamaika no voasoritra kokoa hizoran'i Tomas. |
8 | NHC is giving Port A Prince, Haiti, a 40% chance of receiving tropical storm force winds, and a 5% chance of hurricane force winds. | Ny NHC dia manombana fa i Port au Prince, Haiti dia any ho any amin'ny 40% ny mety isian'ny rivomahery tropikaly, ary herijika 5% amin'ny tafio-drivotra mahery. |
9 | These odds are slightly lower for Kingston, Jamaica-29% and 4%, respectively. | Somary latsaka izany tombana izany ho an'i Kingston, Jamaika - 29% sy 4%. |
10 | Pwoje Espwa - Hope in Haiti says: | Miteny ny Pwoje Espwa - Finoana any Haiti: |
11 | The internet tells us that Tropical Storm Tomas is heading this way. | Miteny antsika ny aterineto fa mizotra mankany amin'io toerana io ny rivomahery tropikaly Tomas. |
12 | What scares me is the flooding that will happen if there's a lot of rain and, of course, that is predicted. | Ny zava-mampatahotra ahy dia ny rotsak'orambe mety hitranga raha betsaka ny orana ary, mazava ho azy, fa efa voavinavina izany. |
13 | We'll be moving the children to higher ground, purchasing extra food and fuel to see us through this potential disaster and doing what we can to secure our buildings, animals and vehicles. | Hamindra ireo zaza any amin'ny toerana avo izahay, fikarohana sakafo tahiry sy lasantsy mba hivoahana amin'ity loza voajanahary ity sy hanao izay tratry ny herinay hamonjena ireo trano, biby ary fiara. |
14 | We'll also be doing some more training to prevent the children from drinking bad water and make sure we have plenty of treated water available. | Miezaka ihany koa izahay hampitandrina ireo ankizy tsy hisotro rano maloto sy hanamarinanay ny fisian'ny rano madio betsaka. |
15 | How Can They Hear? posts a link to the National Hurricane Center in Miami and urges God to “command the course of this hurricane to turn away from Haiti so that they are spared additional suffering.” | Nametraka rohy an'ny Foibem-pirenena Misahana ny Tafiodrivotra Mahery any Miami ny How Can They Hear? ary mitalaho amin'Andriamanitra mba “hampivoaka ny lalàn'ity rivodoza ity hidify an'i Haiti mba tsy hisian'ny fijaliana hafa indray.” |
16 | this isn't grey's anatomy-Haiti medical relief says that she “know[s] what 60 MPH winds (lasting about 60 minutes) can do to a city, trees, billboards, power lines, and tent cities”. | this isn't grey's anatomy-Haiti medical relief dia miteny fa *fantany ny zavatra mety hataon'ny rivo-doza 60 MPH (mandritra ny 60 minitra) amina tanàna iray, ireo hazo, takela-by fametahana dokam-barotra, tarobia mitondra herinaratra, ary ireo tanànan'ny trano lay”. |
17 | The blogger (Jen) was in Haiti for Tropical Storm Noel, which subsequently turned into one of the deadliest hurricanes of the 2007 season: | Tany Haity ny mpitoraka bilaogy (Jen) tamin'ilay Tafio-drivotra Noel, izay nivadika ho isan'ireo rivodoza nahafatesana olona indrindra nandritra ny taona 2007: |
18 | Though only a tropical storm, the flooding it produced was devastating in many parts of the country, especially the south. | Tafiodrivotra tropikaly fotsiny no niatombohany, nandrava faritra maro tao amin'ny nosy ny ranon'orana naterany, indrindra ny faritra Atsimo. |
19 | I will never forget crossing a river near Cavaillon (in southern Haiti) on the way out to Les Cayes…then crossing over the same river again several days later. | Tsy ho adinoiko mihitsy ny fiampitana renirano akaikin'i Cavaillon (any Atsimon'i Haiti) hivoahana any Les Cayes…avy eo mbola niampita ity renirano ity ihany andro maro taty aoriana. |
20 | The river was perhaps 3-4 times as wide as it had previously been (and was much, much deeper), and everything that had been along its banks was covered in muddy water. | 3-4 mihoatra ny taloha angamba ny halehibeny (ary tena lalina be noho ny taloha), ary ireo zava-drehetra izay nanaraka ny fefilohany dia rakotry ny rano avokoa. |
21 | This was only one river of many that had severely overflowed its banks. | Iray amin'ireo renirano maro nandrakotra ireo sisiny fotsiny ihany izy. |
22 | Based on this experience, Jen continues: | Mifototra amin'ity zava-nihatra taminy ity, manohy i Jen: |
23 | I am scared for what Haiti could experience later this week from this storm. | Matahotra aho ny amin'ny mety hiainan'i Haiti aorian'ity herinandro ity noho io tafio-drivotra mahery io. |
24 | Predictions from several days out can be wrong. | Ireo vinavina avy amin'ny andro aloha be loatra dia mety ho diso. |
25 | But if current predictions are correct, Hurricane Tomas could make landfall as a category 2 hurricane in southern Haiti, with winds of up to 110 MPH possible (and the winds certainly wouldn't last only 60 minutes this time). | Fa raha marina ireo vinavina aty aoriandriana, dia mety hiditra any amin'ny faritra Atsimon'i Haiti amin'ny maha sokajin-drivodoza faharoa azy i Tomas, ary mety hihaotra ny 110 MPH ny rivotra ho entiny (ary mety tsy hijanona ny rivotra raha tsy any amin'ny 60 minitra any ho any). |
26 | I am hoping and praying the predictions are wrong, and that Hurricane Tomas continues on westward over the open ocean instead of turning north towards Haiti. | Manantena sy mivavaka aho mba ho diso ireo vinavina ireo, ary hitohy miankandrefana any amin'ny ranomasina ity rivo-doza Tomas ity fa tsy hianavaratra mankany Haiti. |
