Re: Dean Approaches Jamaica

Well RECON are once again in Dean. No vortex message as yet, but they are sending back HDOBs. These show sustained winds of Tropical Storm force are currently occuring about 65 mile east and east-southeast of Jamaica. Based on the current motion of Dean, sustained winds of Tropical Storm force should begin affecting the eastern parts of the island within the next 3 to 4 hours, although tropical storm force gusts will likey begin affecting the island imminently.
