Emergency Services Update: 

At first light, early responders will start moving around Bermuda to assess and begin clearing the roads. In the interest of the safety of the emergency personnel, no assessments will be undertaken before daylight.

Reports have been received by emergency services of downed trees and power lines. For their own safety, residents are urged to stay off the roads which will also give emergency services the time to do their jobs. The priority will be clearing major roads at each end of the island going to King Edward VII Memorial Hospital.

The Minister of National Security, the Hon. Wayne Caines, will give an overview and assessment of the island at 7:30am.
