Miss,thanks for the update.
The 5PM prog put the eye coming ashore between Bull Bay and Sav tomorrow about 10AM
The puts Negril (and my yard) on the "navigable side" of the eye and Kingston on the "dangerous side"
I've been in touch with the family and we are prepared with food and water.
No point in hoping it will miss. Just get prepared......
Looks like they're hunkering down, they've imposed a curfew but I don't see Negril on the list http://www.jamaicaobserver.com/news/...curfew-imposed
Sangster is closing at 8:00 am tomorrow... http://www.jamaicaobserver.com/news/...00am-Wednesday
Stay safe everyone
70MPH Winds at 5AM with winds expected to be 75MPH when it hit's the center of the island later this morning in the Portland/May Pen area.
Kingston’s airport was set to close at 7 a.m. EDT (1100 GMT) Wednesday, and Montego Bay’s airport planned to shutter at 9 a.m. EDT (1300 GMT) which is 8AM Jamaican time. Royal Caribbean Cruises Ltd. announced that its Allure of the Seas megaship would not stop at Jamaica’s northern Falmouth terminal on Wednesday and instead remain at sea.
Hopefully it moves through quickly

Timm, good job with the updates. Remember Garzan with his updates? :)
Good luck to all on the island.
Nothing to report from Negril & area....intermittent light rain around various areas in Negril...a light wind...sea is getting choppy....nothing consistent.
Thanks for the update Lisa, keep safe. You all will be in my thoughts & prayers!!
