HENRY: Hello, and welcome to the Haitian News Today weather program! I’m Henry
Post, and I’ll be your weatherman today.

Now, some of you may be unfamiliar with the Haitian climate, so I’m here to tell you all
about it!

Normally, in Haiti the climate is tropical and it still is. There are two rainy seasons, April
to June and October to November.

Haiti is subject to periodic droughts and floods, while deforestation makes that even
worse!

When you top all of that with hurricanes, it’s pretty brutal weather!
Speaking of brutal weather, the earthquake that happened in Haiti has devastated Haitians
enough, but they will be in more trouble if they do not have shelters before the next
hurricane season begins! With 800,000 now homeless from the quake, the first priority is
shelter.

For some of you unfamiliar why this is so important, here is a list of what Haiti has had to
survive, and unfortunately the disasters happen more in the present than in the past:

1998: Hurricane Georges destroys 80 percent of Haiti's crops while killing more than
400.

May 2004: Three days of heavy rains cause floods that kill more than 2,600.

September 2004: Tropical Storm Jeanne causes flooding and landslides that kill 1,900
and leave 200,000 homeless in Gonaives, Haiti's third-largest city.

October 2007: Tropical Storm Noel triggers mudslides and floods, killing at least 57
Haitians.

August and September 2008: Three hurricanes and tropical storm kill some 800 in Haiti,
devastate crops and cause $1 billion in damage.

Jan. 12, 2010: Magnitude-7.0 quake levels buildings in Port-Au-Prince, raising fears of
tens of thousands of deaths.

Hello, my name is Arafat Olori, reporting live from Port-au- Prince, Haiti where a 7.0
magnitude earthquake hit. Haiti hasn’t had an earthquake for 200 years. The earthquake
struck on Tuesday at 5 pm. A lot of people have been injured from this earthquake.
People have been under the rubble caused by the quake for days without water and food.
3,000,000 in estimate have been affected in this earthquake, which is 1/3 of Haiti’s
population. This earthquake was caused by two plates that passed each other each year
the Caribbean and the North American plates which passed one another each year, 0.8
inches every year. Thank you, and back to you, Lasbat and Cordel.

Today we have just heard that the U.S government built Haiti a commercial bank called Banque
National d’Haiti , this was their only commercial bank. This bank wasn’t built for Haitians it was
built for the U.S they thought it will be useful. 5 years later, Jean Vilbrun Guillaume Sam took
over the country with dictatorship. The U.S occupied Haiti 1915-1934. Haiti is a very poor country
so Haitians have problems like water issues, sewage issues and unemployment. Back to you
Lasbat and Cordel.
