I think this will be a cat 5 by tomorrow and I expect this to get much further west than what models currently think. It’s really gong to pump that mid Atlantic ridge and with such a slow motion I do fear an erratic unexpected track at some point. The fact it is becoming this strong this quickly is a big time cause for concern not just from the standpoint of its impact to Jamaica in my opinion.

I too think it’ll go more west than the forecast says.

Latest recon pass shows no further intensification. For now. Likely just taking a deep breath before it gets ready to bomb out.

Stronger storm would favor a slightly more poleward direction, no?

The rain has started in Kingston, Jamaica.
Depending on the final track it may be days of rain with no breaks

For record, the deadliest known hurricane in the Atlantic basin is the great Hurricane of 1780 which went from south to north over the entire Leeward and Windward Islands. That death toll is estimated at nearly 30,000.
