"JIMANI, Dominican Republic - Floods unleashed by torrential rains swept
through a Dominican Republic farming town Monday, killing about 100 people
and leaving dozens of others feared dead, officials said.
Less serious flooding was reported throughout the country and in
neighboring Puerto Rico, claiming at least four lives. Heavy rains
persisted through the day in some areas, leaving small towns and roads
flooded west of the Dominican capital of Santo Domingo. Parts of the island
saw up to 8 inches of rain, according to the National Weather
Service. Rains that soaked several islands over the weekend, turning roads
into giant puddles, causing traffic jams.
In Antigua and Barbuda, thousands of students stayed home Monday as both
public and private schools closed with officials warning of floods
following four days of rain."
