Felix Gonzalez Canto, governor of the Mexican state of Quintana Roo, declared a Yellow Alert for the entire northern part of the state, including Cancun, Cozumel, Holbox, Isla Mujeres, Playa del Carmen, Riviera Maya and Puerto Morelos, after Hurricane Dean hit the Yucatan Peninsula.
The eye of Hurricane Dean spared St. Lucia’s tourism infrastructure from its wrath as it past north of the island as a Category 2 storm last Friday.
