Well summarised.... love the way you've done this

@LucyLeheilleix Год назад

Thanks very much. It’s an interesting time of the year 😜

@gerardy7500 Год назад

Wow, how time flies. Six years already since you live on the island! I remember watching your first video packing up in SA to move to Mauritius which did not feel too long ago. Take care you and your family.

@LucyLeheilleix Год назад

Thanks Gerard. Amazing how time flies!

@richardgodwin335 Год назад

Excellent video Lucy, you really do cover the whole process for cyclones well.

@LucyLeheilleix Год назад

Thanks so much Richard. Much appreciated!

@roninkegawa1804 Месяц назад

Very good info. From my personal experience a cyclone type 1, 2, or 3, is really not a big deal. Just a lot of clean up afterward. A class 4 is a different story. Out of curiosity, since most cyclones in Mauritius tend to hit east to west, have you noticed a difference in the damages on the east coast versus the west coast?

@antonwalker4038 Год назад

Great video and info Lucy. Really well put together. Take care and best wishes.

As ever a very informative VLOG, thanks so much! It would be great if someone could load a VLOG covering what hotels do when they are full of guests, that would help visitors….

First of all I hope you and your family are ok during the passage of Bilal. I was however wondering whether you could document this event and maybe let us know which area s of the island are least affected. Also what type of building structure seems to be mostly unaffected by this whether. I’m particularly interested to know these kind of things as I ‘m planning to move to Mauritius myself and in the region where I live there are no storms at all. I will pass by Mauritius myself during the first half of februari to investigate the island.

I was in Mauritius during Cyclone Freddy... I booked into an apartment down in La Gaulette for Sunday thru to Wednesday (the cyclone hit Mauritius on the Monday). La Gaulette is in the South West and was well protected by the mountains of the Black River Gorges. It included a very short power failure. Tuesday, it was business as usual. In the following days, all round the Island, there was plenty of evidence that we had endured a bit of a blow. Who would have known that Freddy would have eventually become a record breaking cyclone, causing major loss of life throughout Mozambique and Malawi?

@LucyLeheilleix Год назад

Yeah Freddy has been crazy. So much destruction.

@jeffreysiu6149 9 месяцев назад

Thanks for your real-life practical preparation cyclone advice. So how many rainy days a month on average in Mauritius?

@LucyLeheilleix 9 месяцев назад

Thanks for the comment. Rainy days depends on the season. It’s September now and it has barely rained in weeks. January and February one would expect a bit of rain most days.

@jamconnell1377 10 месяцев назад

Sounds just like caribbean.... I avoid the months of july all the way to october when i visit caribbean because of hurricane season and tropical storms. Dominican Republic, puerto Rico and The Bahamas got hit quite badly last year by a hurricane.

@vevsvevs Год назад

You are very charismatic and your way of presenting information is very disposing. Thank you for a lot of interesting and relevant information about Mauritius, I am very happy to have found your channel! I hope that soon I will be able to use your advice and experience in person :)

@LucyLeheilleix Год назад

Thanks very much. Indeed I hope that you will one day experience the island too 😉

@daveturnbull7221 Год назад

Thanks Lucy - a lot of info in there which I think will be of use to those thinking of visiting or moving to Mauritius. I hope you and your family are safe and well. On the subject of electrical supply how stable is it and how long on average are the interruptions? Not necessarily during the cyclone season but in general?

@LucyLeheilleix Год назад

Thanks for your comment. Sometimes there are interruptions for a day or so for maintenance. During cyclones, we once had 4 days of running a generator. Generally the supply is good here.

@daveturnbull7221 Год назад

@@LucyLeheilleix That's actually better than my recent experiences in the UK. Had no power for 6 days after a storm and generally get several cuts of a minute or so a year.

@sumanghosh-pb3dw 7 месяцев назад

Do u no how many volcanoes including inactive ones are in Mauritius? What about the minimum distance away from the sea you can live to avoid a cyclone?

@LucyLeheilleix 7 месяцев назад

Apparently there are over 20! Do google it (lots of info online). As the island is so small, when there’s a cyclone, most of the island (if not all) is affected.

@yoloz1324 Год назад

Good introduction of what to expect weather-wise in Mauritius. However , such an event isn't that bad as portrayed, it can be interesting. From a Mauritian in London . Thanks Lucy.

hi , i am planning to go in january to Le Morne Mauritius , but i suppose its not a good idea for the cyclones and rain ! i am looking for sunny days can you help me with this , Lucy ? thanks Sergio

@LucyLeheilleix Год назад

Hi Sergio. It’s an island so the weather changes a lot. I prefer April, but if you want heat and humidity, then come in summer 😎

I used to stay in Réduit, Moka back in 2010. I can say that Mauritius is truely beautiful. Cyclones sweep the island and make the climate very fresh and healthy.

The worst thing about this time of year is how terribly the government deals with it. Mauritians are some of the most unlikable and difficult to deal with people I have ever dealt with

I remembered 25 yrs ago when i was in Maurtius we Never had flood like that because there was a lots of space drains to water to go but Now they blocking every drains by building new tracks for trams and other stuff too. They're just Not developing But Destroying that Beautiful Paradise island of Mauritius.They keep cutting all fruits tree just to build buildings & houses they're not planting nothing the way they used too .peoples cannot live only in an island full of buildings But they Need food Too that what mordern peoples dont understand.♥️🇺🇸🦅🇲🇺🦤
