Comments:
On 2nd November 2022, hurricane Lisa made landfall just south of Belize City as a category 1 storm. The NEMO estimated close to 39 percent affectation rate of the country's population i.e. approximately 172,000 persons. The storm has resulted in the temporary displacement of a large number of persons, with an estimated 5K+ seeking refuge in state managed shelters across the country of Belize. The ISA reports damages primarily to the housing sector which is reflective of the poor housing stock associated with the areas of affectation. An estimated 500 houses have been reported as being completely destroyed, with an additional 5,000 homes suffering from light, medium and heavy damages. The NEMO reports initial damage estimates to the housing sector as being approximately USD$10M with most of this damage recorded within the Belize District.
