A sharp-eyed Source reader spotted this “gravity anomaly” last week just west of the pink llama sign on Hull Bay Road on the North Side of St. Thomas. While it could be taken for an AI-generated image, it is indeed real. The reader surmised that the boulder might have become wedged next to the power pole during Tropical Storm Ernesto in August, which brought heavy rain to the area. The Public Works Department and the V.I. Water and Power Authority said Wednesday they would dispatch crews to address the issue.
