Don’t worry… and remember that the weather channel only gets the same information that you and I can see on the National Hurricane Center website… briefings only every 6 hours…. 11pm EDT, 5AM EDT

I’ll check the 5AM EDT update then call around the decision makers and plan out tomorrow… but as of now (7pm Cayman time), we are still under Hurricane Watch, not Warning, which means our own (very cautious) National Hurricane Committee do not anticipate hurricane force winds within 24 hours.

No change overnight, so right now, as we have all our Hurricane provisions in place for the season at The Reef, we are hanging fire.<br/><br/>By tomorrow (Thu) am, we will know better if it will "bounce" North or South of Jamaica.<br/><br/>If North, nothing for us to worry about, as worst we will get is some 30-40mph winds.<br/><br/>If South, it could come close to us as a strong Cat 1 storm. Again, that is not that strong a storm, so not that much to worry about, but we would then at least take the chairs off the beach on Thursday :) Wednesday morning update… under our planning, we check the US NHC advisories every 6 hours. No change overnight, so right now, as we have all our Hurricane provisions in place for the season at The Reef, we are hanging fire.

By tomorrow (Thu) am, we will know better if it will “bounce” North or South of Jamaica.

If North, nothing for us to worry about, as worst we will get is some 30-40mph winds.

If South, it could come close to us as a strong Cat 1 storm. Again, that is not that strong a storm, so not that much to worry about, but we would then at least take the chairs off the beach on Thursday :)
