CUBA

ORIGINALLY, "HURAKAN" WAS
THE NAME OF A TERRIBLE GOD.

BUT OVER TIME THE GODS
OF NATURE LOST IMPORTANCE.

THEY WERE NO LONGER
VOTERED AS AFTER BEFORE.

BUT THEY STILL KICK TODAY

UNLIMITED POWERFUL IN APPEARANCE.
THEREFORE WE GIVE YOU NAME.

THIS IS THE STORY OF LUCY.

HURRICANE - IN THE EYE OF THE STORM

I can be a tiny cloud

or a barely noticeable breeze.

Like those who blow over the
plains of Africa day after day.

But then one day in August...

"Station. Houston Operations Director.
Do you hear me?"

"I hear you well, Houston.

We are currently crossing
Africa, a wonderful morning! "

"It is night here.

Is the precipitation measurement
program ready for use? "

"Negative. We are
still doing the last

calibrations for
transmission at orbit height."

SAINT-LOUIS WEATHER
STATION, SENEGAL, WEST AFRICA

Science studies the weather,
tries to predict its whims.

I am tracked, measured, modeled.

But where am I going?

Who do I meet?

How will I develop?

"Ten months no rain, the
wait has become unbearable.

The temperatures are getting hot... "

Waiting for the monsoons
is hard for everyone.

The people are tense

their hearts and
minds have dried up.

For ten months
only scorching sun.

We have been waiting for rain for so long.

When I wake up, anything will be possible.

I will determine the fate of all

those I come across by chance.

"Weather warning, fishermen
are particularly affected.

Heavy squalls are expected
between Saint-Louis and Dakar.

Shipping traffic is to be
stopped completely... "

My first steps are harbingers
of my reign of terror.

The residents of Saint-Louis
were caught in a sandstorm.

He hit the northern region of the country.

Events like this
are rare here, the

greater the fear and
horror of many people.

My breath brings life back to life.

A ritual begins, a cycle
as old as Africa itself.

"Station? Houston.

Are you recording the current
weather disturbance over Senegal? "

"Houston, we are in the
process of collecting data.

And register
significant rainfall. "

"The National Hurricane
Center asks you to monitor

the system over the Atlantic
for the next few weeks.

Conditions seem favorable
for its development. "

The monsoon wind, longed
for by us, brings us rain.

Then when it sweeps across the

ocean, it whips the
ocean into huge waves.

When this wind hits land,

it wreaks horrific havoc.

What is good for us here

can be devastating elsewhere.

We regret the chaos

that the wind in the Caribbean and on the

American continent.

Because its origin is here.

ATLANTIC OCEAN

I am a despot

but I respect the laws of nature.

I am the force that turns a drop

from the ocean into a raindrop.

I am a distillery from heaven.

Every time you see a cloud

you see the stuff I'm made of

I let the mist of the
ocean rise to the sky

so high that the rotation
of the earth gives me wings.

As soon as the pressure
drops, my transformation begins.

I rise, I screw myself
up into the atmosphere

with a tail of
battalions of clouds.

1500 MILES FROM THE
WEATHER SYSTEM, FLORIDA, USA

"Tower! According to the flight
schedule, it's about ten hours.

Expected landing time 0900UTC tomorrow. "

"NOAA 101, understood.
Permission to take off on runway 1."

"Understood, Tower."

"Houston, the weather system
over the Atlantic delivers a lot of data!"

"No wonder...

The Hurricane Center
speaks of a tropical depression.

First signs of circulation.

The likelihood of it becoming a

storm within 24 hours is 80%. "

500 MILES EAST OF PUERTO
RICO, ATLANTIC OCEAN

"Notos, this is the port watch from Humacao

"Please give instructions on how to break in."

"Notos: port status Yankee,

no permission to enter
until the end of the storm. "

"This is Notos speaking,

our current position is 15.29...

41.8 West...

Wind is getting stronger. "

"The Puerto Rico Coast
Guard recommends moving

south to Curacao until
the ports are cleared."

"Notos change course to 165 degrees."

"We have been at 12,000 feet for 30 minutes.

How many probes did you drop? "

"Number 114 will be ready soon."

"According to the radar, we
are pretty much in the middle

of the weather system, its
center should now be locatable."

"Here comes the information from
a probe from the center of the storm.

The pressure is 990 millibars...

Wind speed around
43 miles per hour.

Upon receipt of this data,
the Hurricane Center will

refer to this weather system
as Tropical Storm Lucy. "

"Understood. Tropical storm Lucy."

WEATHER CENTER,
SAN JUAN, PUERTO RICO

This flow core is
outside of our area.

But if the wind turns, the
thing might change direction.

North of the current
we have a ship that only

50 knots of wind logged, so...

So we don't get a storm?

No, it looks more like rain.

BEFORE THE STORM, EL
YUNQUE, PUERTO RICO

You can see the tides of the ocean

but the air flow is invisible.

She carries the rain with her

who, if I want, soaks the earth.

All of nature is balanced

an ancient cycle,

which I also let circulate.

The sea catches the

sun's heat and I use it.

The same applies to
thunderstorms that arise

and pass in the daily
rhythm of the tropics.

But sometimes the forces of
the distillery are overwhelming.

I don't stay an ordinary storm.

Here in the forest the light is sparse

and all the trees,
all the plants that

grow here need it,
want it for themselves.

The competition for
light in the forest is brutal.

Therefore, many young plants
spend here in the El Yunque rainforest

Decades on the forest
floor before they grow up.

"Today's show was canceled.

The reason is the impending
tropical storm approaching the island.

Warnings were given against rain
and flash floods in the mountain regions.

Everyone on the
beach is asked to

Take safety precautions.

And now it's wetter with Gerry... "

Beyond the sight

and measurable

the gears of the
atmosphere mesh together

and so the infinite
meets the ephemeral.

Before me, in front of me

stands man

with all his wisdom and his will,

only microscopic.

We have to get out of here now, Francesca!

"Look, Lucy has Puerto
Rico right in her sights!"

"Would be nice to see that!"

"Immediately... shit, it's over again.

Well, the next shot will be better. "

"I'm looking forward to
a picture in 90 minutes."

A machine of nature

a steam engine that carries rain

from the sky to
the distant ground.

I live on the heat of the ocean

I suck the water of the
sea into my cloud carousel.

Spit it out.

Recycle it.

Intensify it.

250 MILES OFF THE
COAST OF PUERTO RICO

This morning at 10:38
a.m., a meteorologist from the

National Weather Service
discovered thunderclouds,

who moved inland via
Ceiba, Fajardo and Luquillo.

These clouds could...

Where should i put this?

In the living room, please.

OK.

Aunt, why are we putting everything away?

Because a storm is coming.

Amanda, take this to the living room.

When I was young I found it
appealing to live like a vagabond.

I slept in the open air

covered with a piece of cardboard.

I listened to the
river splashing past.

But then a hurricane came and
my situation became very difficult!

Pouring rain, the river that
swelled wetter and wetter...

For a moment, in a split second,

everything echoes
through my head.

I suddenly remembered my family.

The good feeling of having a home

To be part of society.

And a voice deep
down inside said

I don't want to die here.

All living things huddle together
when the air pressure drops.

The first sign of my arrival.

The weather system is now clearly visible.

Presumably, the National
Hurricane Center will

soon classify it as a
Category 1 hurricane.

I'm not worried about the wind yet
because people are prepared for it.

Worrying is the amount of rain
that could come with the storm.

We can't just focus
on the storm center.

It could rain for a day or two.

What about the media, what
amounts of precipitation do we report?

You know what I think of
announcing two-digit numbers.

Yes, we should
be cautious at first.

We expect four to six inches and

inform the press that
there could be more.

Maybe in double digits.

My companions are rain

thunder

and lightning.

You speak for me.

You are the bearer of a message
that will shake the atmosphere.

INSTITUTE OF
METEOROLOGY, HAVANA, CUBA

"Will Cuba be affected?"

Yes, it's possible. We
followed the storm from Africa.

The tropical storm Lucia
has turned into a cyclone

developed in category 1,

south of here, near Puerto Rico.

"Do you hear me Houston?"

"Are you over Lucy yet?"

"Lucy is behind us.

She is leaving Puerto
Rico and heading for Cuba. "

"I don't want to be there now.

It is predicted to
become Category 3 due to

very high water
temperatures. Or even worse."

COASTAL REEF IN SOUTHEAST OF CUBA

Is the sea calm and smooth

my appearance hardly seems possible.

But I dare where I want to go.

My presence can already be
guessed beyond the horizon.

Anyone who feels me flees.

But you,

you measure me.

I am shaking your certainties.

As you know, I just got a call
from the civil protection authority,

the situation is dire.

We have to examine everything

carefully to make
the right decisions.

Is this the latest data?

Yes.

So, that's the position,
here, the Dominican Republic.

According to some models,
Lucy is moving north,

others assume that it is heading
south, very close to Granma.

And these models here show that
she is moving to the south of Jamaica.

Everything now depends
on this high pressure area.

If it stays that strong,
it will force Lucy

south, and she will not
hit eastern Cuba directly.

SANTA CRUZ PORT, SOUTHERN CUBA

Up with it!

Wait a minute.

Hurry up!

And see that it is right...

is tied.

Norca, look, in
this photo is the boy

only 3 years old!

Hopefully it won't get wet.

Just look how cute the little one looks!

-Which little one?
-Josana.

A little bit of weather up.

Come on, come on, we have to hurry.

Yes.

The bus is waiting for us.

Lock the door well.

TEN HOURS TO LUCY, PUERTO RICO

"... hurricane Lucy
only grazed us, the

damage to the
infrastructure is minimal.

The El Yunque
rainforest is hardest hit.

Trees fell, branches fell and

landslides occurred
in some valleys.

More news from San Juan.
The national fishing festival... "

Nobody thought it possible

that a storm could hit
the rainforest so badly.

We believed it would last forever.

The employees of the

forestry office were very sad

because they thought El
Yunque was completely destroyed.

Now, as a cyclone, I'm shuffling
and redistributing the cards.

I shake hierarchies and
turn everything upside down.

The fate of old people who
cross my path is in my hand.

In this wild tumult

raging winds whirl
around my destructive core.

The eye in my center
becomes clearer and clearer.

I get stronger and stronger.

Devastate everything.

I am a cyclops.

17 HOURS BEFORE THE
STORM, SANTA CRUZ, CUBA

"We ask you to keep calm.

There is room for everyone on the bus. "

"Wow. Lucy got huge!"

"Infrared images show them
nearly 800 miles across."

"Okay, we're heading south, wetter.

Even from up
here: a great sight. "

SOUTH COAST OF CUBA

The first billowing
waves herald my arrival.

Whoever fears me knows that.

But they don't show my real power.

I'm still just playing.

You have no idea who I am until
you have looked into my heart.

PINAR DEL RIO, WEST CUBA

"Information from the Institute for
Meteorology and the Civil Protection Authority:

Cyclone Lucia is a
real threat to the east

and the center of our
country. We request..."

"More turbulence than before.
The storm is increasing."

- "Do you see something?"
-"Yes_"

"We have broken through the wall of
the eyes, we are now in the eye itself.

It's beautiful and clearly delimited.

How high are the pressure
and wind speed here? "

"The pressure was 940 millibars.

It went down when we
broke through the wall.

Wind speed 120 mph,

Lucy is approaching a
Category 4 strength. "

"Okay I see.

Lucy becomes a
Category 4 cyclone.

A really nice eye, very clearly.

Downright unreal!
Great, this storm!

Beautiful!"

FIVE HOURS BEFORE
THE STORM, HAVANA, CUBA

Another new piece of urgent information.

A reconnaissance
plane found that

the cyclone's
pressure had dropped.

That said, Lucy is still getting stronger.

With a wind speed of 205 km / h,

it is almost a
category 4 hurricane.

"... with reaching warmer
waters in the next few hours

she could get stronger.

Your final route
may be in the offing.

We therefore recommend to all
citizens of the western regions:

Pay close attention to the
development of Hurricane Lucy. "

The maximum constant wind force

is 240 km / h, in
gusts over 270 km / h.

A dangerous cyclone.

Here are the prognoses.

All indications are that the
storm will hit Pinar del Rio.

"Heavy rain, strong winds,
strong thunderstorms..."

I devour everything
that gets in my way.

I harvest

I mow.

"_... five meter high
waves in this area..."

-Listen, listen!
-"_..destroys everything.

... already evacuated.

In this area...

... there is a mortal danger. ”"

"Fantastic!
That wind can create something like this!"

"Pressure in the storm center 892 millibars.

Constant wind speed 122 mph. "

Oh! The roof is about to fly away! Do you hear

-Oh God, what's up?
-Where are the lamps?

She keeps getting stronger!

We are waiting for the latest
satellite data. And then...

"... the hurricane left a trail
of destruction in our area.

I am now talking to the
journalist Rolando Canauras

Sanchez about the latest
details on the events. "

"Just a few hours after the
hurricane left you can say..."

"Station, still data
on the precipitation?"

"Yes. They are much lower over Cuba.

Lucy has lost a lot of
her strength overland. "

"It seems so. But it could get
stronger again over the Gulf Stream."

WEATHER FORECAST
CENTER, CALIFORNIA, USA

I'm etcher, this
storm was one of the

most destructive
in hurricane history.

When a Category 4 hits the

coast, it creates
a huge tidal wave.

Cuba is always prepared for something like this.

Yes, they will not have
to mourn many deaths.

Hundreds of thousands were evacuated...

That storm,
Category 2, if it hits

land, could it reach
Category 3 or 4?

-It is possible, yes.
-Yes. Let's get to that.

What about the course?
First the course.

-How is the course assessed?
-Everyone agrees on that.

He sets course for Louisiana.

Yes, that was controversial,
now we are in agreement.

That doesn't mean that this
course will stay the same.

But New Orleans is likely.

Everything outside of the
federal-level system must be evacuated.

We don't have a lot of time,
we have to open the auditorium.

Okay, let's activate the
analysis and evaluation program.

The crew is ready
to set up the shelters.

About four to six hours, then we

can accommodate
the people there.

"Attention, attention!
This area must be evacuated.

There was a flash flood warning. "

Mrs. Doris!

-What?
-We have to go.

-No.
-Yes, we have to go!

-Where?
-We have to get you to the shelter.

-No.
-There is a flash flood warning

-for this area,
-no, I'm staying here.

-This is my home!
-and you are in danger here.

I stay here, this is my house.

I know, but we have to get out of
here, we're taking you to a safe place.

No I'm not going...

-Tell me why you don't want to.
-My cat,

-she is my baby.
-Her cat?

You can take the cat with you.
But now we have to go.

-No!
-Yes, yes! You are in danger here.

"... while Hurricane Lucy
slowly moves across the Gulf.

Forecasts predict floods
of 5 to 10 feet in height.

The extreme weather
could start on Monday

Tuesday peak
and last for days. "

"Station, how is Jim?"

"He's sleeping."

"Tell him that because
of the threat of severe

storms in Louisiana,
we've evacuated his family."

"He'll be happy there, I'll take care of it."

Well, about the storm surges that
await us: we have to close the gates.

The access gate to the canal

and the gate at the level crossing.

AFTER THE STORM IN SOUTHERN CUBA

It was around 5 a.m., I know that
because my television is always on.

At around 5 it was said that
the storm had grown weaker,

but after this news
fie | the power off.

I was really scared.

And then it started.

Suddenly the wall was torn away.

I couldn't see anything anymore.

Then the roof was blown away.

Nothing was left, I was
completely defenseless.

Objects flew through the air.

The sheets, everything.

Everything flew through the air.
The wind took everything from me.

We heard the impact of the stones
that the sea hurled against the houses.

We heard and felt
the stones hitting

the doors and
walls of the houses.

It was a terrible noise

the whole time.

The roof was gone.

There was silence.

We only said the bare essentials
to give each other courage.

I thought I was going to pass out.

I was so scared, I've
never seen anything like it.

Even though I
turned 80 this year.

I was very afraid. I thought:

"Oh god, what if the
water is still wetter?

How do I get my sister out of here? "

I can't swim, and
neither can she.

I said to her that if
we drown, it would be

best in our sleep,
then we wouldn't notice.

I didn't know the weather
anymore, you understand?

I just sat on a stone.

And then I went to our
house with my sister.

And this was...

To see how the place
where you were born...

I do not know either,

it just hurt a
lot to see it all.

It hit me very much.

I thought I was going crazy.

That was her furniture, her favorite room.

Your memories, the
photo of my uncle...

It was a place she loved very much.

Here she always sat and
watched TV, on the rocking chair.

Here she cleaned the rice,

with the door open to have enough light.

Now she only has her bedroom.

She's getting bitter and bitter.

More and more sad.

She loses all her courage to face life.

Be careful not to slip!

We were lucky it
was just the roof.

It's correct.

We'll fix it quickly.

Just see

everything broken.

Don't worry, let's replant.

You cannot imagine who I
am and what I am capable of.

The realm of my possibilities
extends far beyond yours.

I destroy without feeling any.

I would be a monster

My doing did not miraculously
serve a higher purpose.

I now only find
the sea terrible.

It devoured so
many stable houses.

It's a monster

i'm afraid

I will never go to the
beach and bathe again.

LOUISIANA COAST,
UNITED STATES OF AMERICA

It appears that around 200
people have not yet been evacuated.

We have to get them out of there now.

Immediately, because the storm
is coming rapidly and with force.

I just heard it says
north of Whiteditch

the water already 5 feet high.

It's fast folks, it's a
matter of minutes.

"Although Lucy is smaller than
storms like Katrina or Sandy,

storm surges are expected far

inland, as far as Baton Rouge,

also heavy rains and
floods in Alexandria.

Don't leave your homes. "

"_ .. worries more.

Repeated tides and heavy rain

can be even stronger
than expected. "

Look, look:

One, two...

-Yes!
-Wow.

Twelve HOURS LATER

I set the clock back.

When my engine finally comes
to a standstill, you will take stock.

What is left of what you
were and what you had?

Come on, come on, come on.

Go, go, go, go! Go Go!

Go Go!

There, behind the tree!

"_ .. much higher than expected.

Lucy fell asleep,
no longer exists.

Now a post-tropical
depression is moving north,

with heavy rainfall and
flooding in the Midwest. "

"... Lucy was the worst
storm of the year so far.

In the Caribbean he left chaos
and damage running into billions. "

TEN DAYS AFTER LUCY

I came about by chance,
but my end is certain.

I have to die without water.

My life has been a mad
race, the goal, an early grave.

Was it also an act of ultimate malice?

Good and bad have the same origin.

That is the duality of his.

I can be both a curse and a blessing.

I may have been tyrannical

but it was my destiny
to restore balance.

Most people simply
live their lives.

You don't think too much

about having a natural disaster

everything can come to an end all of a sudden.

This is exactly what I
experienced and I realized that

it is not a matter of course
to own beautiful things,

to have a comfortable home

and to feel etcher around it.

I think this experience was good
for me, I don't wish it for anyone.

And I don't know if I can

be glad that happened to me.

Of course, I'm not happy
that it hit my city. but

somehow it's good to know that

I've survived
something so terrible

And I could get through it again

You lose your innocence, so to

speak, but you
also gain strength.

This cyclone did
a great miracle.

My friends, the plants
that were vegetating on the

ground down here began to
sprout up after the hurricane.

Some have waited 40 years.

How old is the Yunque?

30 million years!

How many hurricanes
have passed through here?

Well, by our calculation, about 15,000.

A hurricane is as important to
the Yunque as light and water.

I understand that the misery, the chaos,

that a storm leaves
like a hurricane

put people in fear and terror.

But a hurricane also
rearranges things; it

can also be a blessing,
not just a curse.

Of course, sometimes you wish

that the circumstances would be different

And tomorrow will be a better day

Without me there would
be no rivers on earth

no woods,

no prairies,

no fruit

and no flowers.

I create the air to breathe

make the earth habitable.

I make people possible in the first place.

Storms like me have been walking on this earth
for an incomprehensibly long time for you.

You will walk this
earth as long as it exists.

THE STORY OF THE HURRICANE
LUCY IS A DRAMATIZATION.

THE EVENTS WERE FILMED
OVER A PERIOD OF FIVE YEARS

AND INCLUDE MANY DIFFERENT
WEATHER AND HURRICANES.
