Bare Counters
Roberto Micheletti is announcing the lifting of the curfew in Honduras between the hours of 10am to 4pm to allow Hondurans to shop for groceries. Most people were at work when Zelaya announced his return and were unable to prepare for a days-long curfew.
Expect incredibly long lines, “venta loca” (mad sales) at the markets and bare counters at supermarkets everywhere, as millions of Hondurans rush to stockpile on food, candles, diesel, and other goods. Batten down the hatches, hurricane Zelaya has already begun, with violent winds, hailstones, and rain. Hopefully no flooding will occur and no deaths.
