Tropical Melissa

The one I saw earlier was leaving because I guess he didn't want to get stuck. The airports were closing tonight

Icyclone is going to Cuba I think
I don't know if I'd want to be in Jamaica for this one. I did see Tornado Paigy said her and her fiance were going after I posted my question. Not sure if they made it down or not.

Yeah even Cuba I'm not sure... Their infrastructure is still poor and honestly I think they still force everyone to evacuate basically. Nobody is gonna be there to help if you get stuck

This just doesn't seem like a good one to chase. Theres way too many things that can go wrong

12Z GFS is the furthest west run yet with it going NNE over Kingston at 969 while strengthening during the 6 hour crossover. Kingston gets 35”!
 
12Z Euro: goes back to an extent to the pre 0Z/6Z runs by being a bit further S of Jamaica thus helping it to get stronger (962) and thus it hits Jamaica at 971 instead of 986-8. It then goes back to a NE move over Jamaica and exits at 977 vs 992 of 0Z/6Z. As a result, the 20” line goes back further W to center of Jamaica.
