Radio Anguilla's Nisha Dupuis Gets International Attention For Remaining On The Air During Hurricane Irma

A Brave 19 Year Old

What if you were on the air as HURRICANE IRMA was closing in on your studio location? Could you... or would you stay and keep listeners informed?

THE CBC reports NISHA DUPUIS kept broadcasting the latest news about IRMA, "to the people of ANGUILLA on WEDNESDAY, even when the storm caused the radio station's systems to shut down and she lost contact with her family. DUPUIS is a reporter for RADIO ANGUILLA, a station on the small CARIBBEAN island that was in the direct path of HURRICANE IRMA on WEDNESDAY morning. Powerful winds from the Category 5 hurricane slammed the island nation, toppling trees, destroying cars and ripping the doors, widows and roofs from homes and other buildings."
