Update Hurricane Maria St Croix Puerto Rico St Thomas Evacuations Flights Cancelled Cruises Diverted  Hurricane Maria is heading for St Croix and Puerto Rico with Category 4 winds.  The ports of St Croix and San Juan were supposed to help with the overflow of tourists from cruise ships as St Thomas and St Maarten are out of commission due to hurricane Irma.  Now it looks like both of these ports will also be off line for a while.  In the meantime, FEMA has chartered a cruise ship to house Special Forces personel in St Thomas.  Up to 1500 FEMA workers will be housed on the Grand Celebration cruise ship for the next 3 months.  The island is so badly damaged that there is no housing available for these people while they help rebuild the infrastructure of St Thomas.
