* Jamaica

A Tropical Storm Warning is in effect for...
* Colombia/Venezuela border to Riohacha

A Tropical Storm Watch is in effect for...
* Haiti from the southern border with the Dominican Republic to
Port-Au-Prince

A Hurricane Watch means that hurricane conditions are possible
within the watch area. A watch is typically issued 48 hours before
the anticipated first occurrence of tropical-storm-force winds,
conditions that make outside preparations difficult or dangerous.

A Tropical Storm Warning means that tropical storm conditions are
expected somewhere within the warning area, in this case in the
next 12 hours.

A Tropical Storm Watch means that tropical storm conditions are
possible within the watch area, generally within 48 hours.

Interests elsewhere along the coasts of Venezuela and Colombia and
elsewhere in Hispaniola should monitor the progress of Matthew.
Interests in eastern Cuba should also monitor the progress of
Matthew.

For storm information specific to your area, please monitor
products issued by your national meteorological service.


DISCUSSION AND 48-HOUR OUTLOOK
------------------------------
At 1100 PM EDT (0300 UTC), the eye of Hurricane Matthew was located
near latitude 13.3 North, longitude 72.3 West. Matthew is moving
just south of due west near 7 mph (11 km/h). A turn toward the
west-northwest is forecast on Saturday, followed by a turn toward
the northwest on Sunday. On the forecast track, the center of
Matthew will move north of the Guajira Peninsula tonight, move
across the central Caribbean Sea on Saturday, and be approaching
Jamaica late Sunday.

Data from an Air Force Hurricane Hunter plane indicate that
the maximum sustained winds have increased to near 160 mph (260
km/h) with higher gusts. Matthew is a category 5 hurricane on the
Saffir-Simpson Hurricane Wind Scale. Some fluctuations in intensity
are possible this weekend, but Matthew is expected to remain a
powerful hurricane through Sunday.

Hurricane-force winds extend outward up to 45 miles (75 km) from the
center and tropical-storm-force winds extend outward up to 205 miles
(335 km).

The minimum central pressure estimated by a reconnaissance aircraft
was 941 mb (27.79 inches).


HAZARDS AFFECTING LAND
----------------------
WIND: Tropical storm conditions are expected to continue in
portions of the warning area in Colombia overnight. Hurricane
conditions are possible on Jamaica on Monday, with tropical storm
conditions possible by late Sunday. Tropical storm conditions are
possible in the watch area in Haiti by late Sunday.

RAINFALL: Rainfall totals of 2 to 4 inches with isolated higher
amounts are expected over Aruba, Bonaire and Curacao through
Saturday. Rainfall totals of 2 to 4 inches with isolated higher
amounts are expected along the coast of Colombia from the Venezuelan
border to Riohacha. Rainfall totals of 1 to 2 inches with isolated
higher amounts are expected along the coast of Venezuela from Coro
to the Colombian border.

Rainfall totals of 10 to 15 inches with isolated maximum amounts of
25 inches are expected across Jamaica and southern and southwestern
Haiti. These rains may produce life-threatening flash flooding and
mud slides.

SURF: Swells generated by Matthew are expected to affect portions
of the coasts of Puerto Rico, Hispaniola, Jamaica, Aruba, Bonaire,
Curacao, Venezuela, and Colombia during the next few days. These
swells are likely to cause life-threatening surf and rip current
conditions. Please consult products from your local weather office.


NEXT ADVISORY
-------------
Next intermediate advisory at 200 AM EDT.
Next complete advisory at 500 AM EDT.

So not headed straight for Jamaica at least not yet.


Because theyve been counting on coriolis effect. But matthew is doing something rather unconventinal... even... tactical...

By creating a massive disturbance while a wave. Matthew was able to breach our shields with a small wave which it kept pumping with gas to keep alive. That wave has grown so much that matthew now has a visible and stable looking 'double yolk'. That second yolk is now acting as a pivot for matthew who has attached itself to our shields and using it to hug the coast line and defy the coriolis effect.

Looks more like the intention is to breach the southamerican coastline at north venezuela and run inland. The fker have cat 5 outside the shield and a yolk of equal size inside the shield. This seems to have created a sort of perpetual motion that is accelerating matthew's growth.

That yolk looks really solid right now so im going to go with something unconventional as a prediction. Matthew, wants to turn south. There is a minute chance that it can make a full loop and come back around towards us. But as long as that yolk persists, matthew will not adhere to coriolis effect expectations.

Watch this ting. I would say there is a risk of that yolk developing into a separate hurricane of it's own. I watch matthew bring it up from baby. And it seems to me to be trying to gain its own independent spin.

Not so sure. It lost some power because it's hammering our shields and trying to keep second yolk fueled because that's it's backdoor in. But it seems intelligently guided. When it does that it loses power, but then it takes time to regenerate before trying again. Current movement is reported as southward at 2mph by weatherunderground. A hammer attempt. If it fails it will turn westward again.

Shields real wukkin tho. Matthew have to fight and struggle even with this strategy to cross the border.

I doubt it will turn into a hurricane, but then we've had bad storms before. it may actually boost economy due to rebuilding, fixing roads, slight damaged rooves and stuff.


And where will the money come from to fix???????

We might get spared but God may decide we need some shaking up. :shock: :shock:



We have been bad an we have always been spared so the money that will boost our economy will pour in from the islands when they start to buy goods, services and building materials to rebuild.

Last major hurricane that hit them was Gilbert in 1988 an the Jamaica economy don't need this money draining hurricane right now. Probably why they don't like us much. Always have to come to us for help.

An we never need them....

Well we do steal from them, just in the form of cultural appropriation.

Anyway latest models show it might directly hit Haiti instead.

Looks like God doh like voodoo.

McKenzie reports 30 people still on the cays, two now appealling for help to evacuate

Published:Sunday | October 2, 2016 | 6:10 PM

The Local Government Minister Desmond McKenzie is reporting that 30 people remained on the cays despite the efforts of the Jamaica Defence Force to evacuate them with at least two fishers now appealing for help to return to the mainland.

Image

But McKenzie, speaking a short while ago at a press conference on the impending Hurricane Matthew said the two, a father and son, called a family member on the mainland who contacted him pleading for help.

However, the minister said the safety of first responders should not be placed at risk for people who fail to heed evacuation warning.

"There is a point where the Government has to start and a point where the Government has to stop," McKenzie said.

The dangerous category four Hurricane Matthew is moving towards Jamaica.

On it's forecast track, the centre of Matthew is moving away from the eastern most tip of Jamaica, but the system will dump torrential rains on Jamaica.

The Head of the Meteorological Service, Evan Thompson says storm force winds are likely tonight and will peak tomorrow afternoon.

McKenzie has also issued an appeal for residents of low-lying and flood prone areas to immediately evacuate.

He says buses will be sent to Port Royal at 6 p.m and will depart at 8 p.m for the shelter at the National Arena.

According to McKenzie there is no guarantee that first responders will be able to revisit the community afterwards.

He has also highlighted Portland Cottage and Rocky Point in Clarendon; Manchioneal in Portland; and, Kintyre, Duhaney Park and New Haven in St Andrew as areas of concern.

That might have to do with why its been moving so slow. Before that zone grew to the size it is now, matthew was covering ground at 16mph. Since the development of that zone matthew's movement slowed to a crawl between 4-6mph. It's currently moving due north at 6mph. This because that pressure zone got dislodged from our shield but still applying the brakes. Before that, yesterday, matthew took a sudden turn southward, bounced off the north venezuelan coastline and has been moving due north/north-west since then at a very slow speed.

If the low pressure zone keeps the speed down, this means matthew would do alot more damage as it would linger over the land creating extended devastation. Seems like coriolis is taking command of the operation.. but matthew may have 2 well placed pressure zones that could tilt it more towards haiti as it heads north.
