Projections are Kingston will be right to the east of it. Full winds. 

Also- If it wobbles W or E will have a major impact. But the whole island is fucked.

if I recall, the massive deforestation of the island means they will have a shit ton of mudslides - and communities will be cut off from each other and from aid workers

Jamaica or Haiti? Yeah, Haiti is fucked with no matter what. A grasshopper could spit and it causes a mudslide. 

Aid worker? Where? We (the US) were the lead for this region. Um.... Well you know.

Looking a little bit better for Kingston (metro pop: 1.2 million) and the rest of the eastern third of the island. I imagine they'll still see tons of coastal flooding, mudslides, and the attendant damage, but let's hope they're spared the worst of the winds. Of course, that's no consolation for the poor folks 50 miles to the west.

I went to Negril probably 7 or 8 times in my 20's and early 30's.  Doesn't seem like area ever fully recovered post-covid from what I've read (more crime, etc.) and this certainly won't help, but at least it doesn't look like the Western side will take the worst of it.  Never been down to the south coast area where this will hit and it's not nearly as developed, but what is there about to get wiped out.    Lots of good people there.  Hate it for them.
