Hurricane Dean heads for Jamaica (Radar loop)


Hurricane Dean is closing in on Jamaica and at last look (just at the start of Sunday 8/19/2007) the radar and satelite images , Dean’s eye appears to be headed just south of the island. The storm bands are huge though and the storm bands will more than cover all of Jamaica as it passes on Sunday.

Using Jamaica radar and the Jamaica map, experts predict that hurricane dean will hit Jamaica at 155mph (249kph) winds and bring up to 20 inches (50cms) of rain.

To protect the people of Jamaica, over 1000 shelters have been set up across Jamaica in preparing for the bad weather that hurricane dean will bring.
