I'm praying for my Rastafarian brothers and sisters and all Jamaicans.

The eye is just south of Jamaica, of course Haiti/DR will get slammed as well.

175 mph sustained winds, tracking NNW @ 3mph at 3pm EDT, 10/27/2025. Landfall is expected tomorrow around 10am and w the storm moving that slowly w that much wind it's going to be brutal.

I prayed for the people on that island this morning because it's going to be a terrible catastrophe. I saw one young American woman on the news who said she doesn't know when she'll be able to get home. All flights are canceled for the week. Truthfully, it may wind up being longer with the devastation being forecast. They were warning tourists to leave the island by Saturday, I think. I wonder if there were no more available flights on that day or if she just waited too long to try to get a flight.
