Cleanup operations continued Thursday in the wake of the passing of Hurricane Earl, which downed trees, disrupted the electricity and water supplies, and caused minor damage in communities across the island on Monday. While heavy seas and seaweed were blamed as major factors in the disruption of electricity generation as a result of the passing of the storm, tons of seaweed washed ashore by the storm were also in evidence on the Great Bay beach promenade and at Captain Hodge Wharf. Several trucks were used Thursday to cart away the seaweed and other debris. (John Halley photo)
