It's unfortunate that this isn't just going to be a fish spinner. Jamaica is getting ready to be smashed. I have friends who live in Montego Bay who report they're being pushed by the police to leave East for Kingston or even farther if possible. Some cellular towers have gone down, but the cellular service is still mostly up.

They're prepared for an expected N N/W change going pretty much right over their house. Even with all the shear, it still maintains a pretty damn good structure. Compact with a tiny eye is sort of lucky, I guess.
