Hurricane Fiona landed on Puerto Rico Sunday bringing with it strong wind gusts and rain that knocked out power for the whole island.
Luma, the private consortium that manages Puerto Rico’s electrical transmission and distribution system, said the situation on the island was “extremely dangerous and impeding our ability to evaluate the entire situation,” the Washington Post reported. The company added it could take several days to restore power and asked customers for “patience,” according to the Post.
