Looks like Sandals taking a direct hit.

I wish I had faith the US will come to their aid once the storm passes.

Well, the Democrats shut down the government so there is no money or personnel available to help out a poor storm-ravaged country. President Trump is very empathic to the situation and would like nothing better than sending massive amounts of aid. Alas, Chuck Schumer and Hakeem Jeffries are holding the government hostage so they can give health care to illegal immigrants, which forces President Trump to withhold much needed aid.

It keeps going more west. It may go west of Montego Bay.

This is true in areas directly impacted by the eyewall. Because the storm is so compact, however, other parts of Jamaica such as Kingston will barely get any rain and will have some light gusts. That is this storm’s saving grace.

You have a different definition of "barely any rain" than I do. On top of that, flooding caused by all the rain the mountains are getting is going to prolong the period of potential danger. The Blue Mountain range is only a few miles outside the city.

Are you sure about this? Just yesterday one of the board conservatives assured us Melissa would be one of the "small" ones. You know sort of like the havoc St. Donald of Mar-a-Lago is wreaking on America.

One of the planes today had to abort their run towards the eyewall and return to base because they passed their g-force maximum. The plane went like +225 ft then -550 ft in a matter of seconds. Was something like 3.8 gs.

I haven't seen the map where it came on shore, but I believe you are referencing the Sandals my wife and I honeymooned at, which at the time was called Sandals Whitehouse. Its a beautiful property. Wishing a fast recovery to that wonderful country.

Wife and I got married/honeymooned at Whitehouse. I’m very saddened by this.

Sounds like Saint Elizabeth has been destroyed.

I wonder if they’re getting paid?

I stayed at Couples in Negril a couple of decades ago. Was a nice place.

Edit: I assumed you were referencing Sandals in Negril.
