Puerto Ricans bracing for Hurricane Fiona
(CNN) - Hurricane Fiona has made landfall as a Category 1 along Puerto Rico's Southwestern Coast.
So far, power has been knocked out across the island, and it could take days to restore.
This blackout comes five years after Hurricane Maria devastated Puerto Rico's power grid.
However, this is nothing new for Puerto Ricans, including one Puerto Rican woman.
"She was a year without power after Hurricane Maria.....I'm asking her if that's what she thinks about when the rain.....She says, every single time that there's rain that comes down for three or four days, they go weeks without power," says Puerto Rican Resident Lourdes Rodriguez.
In a video sent to CNN on Sunday, where strong waves crash on the beach in San Juan as Hurricane Fiona gathered strength over the island, parts of which could see up to 25 inches of rain from the Category One storm.
Before it even reached the island, Fiona wreaked havoc as a tropical storm.
Meanwhile in Guadelope, Southeast of Puerto Rico, where flooding devastated the capitol on Saturday, killing at least one person.
Furthermore, Fiona becomes the third hurricane of the 2022 Atlantic hurricane season and the National Hurricane Center forecasts catastrophic flooding across Puerto Rico.
