As of 10 PM Sunday night the total dead from the tropical storm is 82 with 50-60 missing,14 bridges are washed out, and the storm has hindered the clean up of ash from Volcan Pacaya. The authorities are hoping to open Airport Aurora Tuesday. It is difficult to travel by road for more than 5-10 miles without encountering problems.
If anyone can arrange to wait for a week or two before coming to Guatemala for vacation they will have a much more relaxed and enjoyable time.

Thanks for the update as planning to be in Antigua around the end of June. Hope there are no more deaths from the storms.

thanks for the update! i'll be heading down to C.A. on 4 july (independence day is the best day to escape the U.$., i would say!)... hoping and praying that this hurricane season isn't as tumultuous as they say it may be, and that the guatemalan people are able to recover quickly from this :\
