ROSEAU, Dominica, CMC -- Tropical Storm Chantal left Dominica with a trail of destruction in the southern part of this Windward island on Tuesday before churning out into the Caribbean Sea and setting its sights on Haiti and the Dominican Republic. By 5.00 pm (2100 GMT), a tropical storm warning was discontinued after a day of strong gusts left some homes without roofs, forcing occupants to seek shelter from relatives. After veering 45 miles north of Barbados early Tuesday, Chantal spun through the channel separating Martinique and its southern neighbour St Lucia, with Dominica further north begin to feel the effects of the minor storm's rainy and wind-laden cloud bands.
