Connections: Discussing the impact of Hurricane Dorian

Hurricane Dorian has caused a humanitarian crisis in the northwestern Bahamas, scraped Florida’s coast, and now the Category 3 storm is spinning off the coast of South Carolina. Experts say it could make landfall in North Carolina.

This hour, we discuss the impact the storm has had – both in the Bahamas and in the U.S. – with a local businessman who is building a home in the Bahamas and leading relief efforts there, and with a representative from the American Red Cross.

  • Matt Winslow, local businessman aiding with recovery and relief efforts in Elbow Cay, Abaco Islands, Bahamas
  • Jay Bonafede, chief communications officer for the American Red Cross, Western and Central New York Region
