Hi,
I saw Kurt Jean-Charles this morning, and they are preparing for the
storm with his team at Noula.ht (which has a local call center, with a
short number, 177), in coordination with local actors, such as the Red
Cross and Haitian authorities.
He was going to make the announcement himself when they are ready, but I
mention it now as it might be better to coordinate as early as possible
and avoid duplication of efforts.
Best wishes,
Jean-Guilhem

Most people currently at Haiti Communitere are planning to move to
Phil's apartment in Petionville for the storm, approximately there:

Good to hear that there's a crowdmap up and running for Isaac / Haiti.
(Added HOT@osm to the list.)
I am in the country (have been here about two years) and have started
to prepare to the storm with fellow-HOTties. As of now we are doing
standard HOT preparations (locating equipment, mappers, checking up
with local actors, continuing with checking OSM data (after the
license change bot), etc). I have a team of local mappers who are
helping out to ensure that we have the capacity to respond as needed.
The government has raised the alert level to red (the highest level).
It seems that while we may well get a major amount of water and
possibly hurricane class winds and there's a possibility for heavy
damage (rain of possibly 20-30 cm) it's also quite possible that the
wind speeds may not pick up to total destruction levels.
The humanitarian threat is real nevertheless to major with some
400,000 people still in camps and a possible trajectory of the center
of the storm that might cross right over this area..
Any other people in Haiti or working with / doing things related to
the storm on these lists?
