The hurricane hunters are in there now and will give us an update at 8.00am. Looking at the satellite, it seems to be heading more west than WNW so it has moved slightly south as well. That means it's closer to our north east and north coast. It's been raining most of the night, but not that hard in my part of the island and so far there is very little wind. Will get local updates shortly.

it looks like a huge green puppy angel with wings trying to cuddle with Jamaca!
That system going through the northern Gulf and Florida from your loop is running contrary to Elsa trying to organize and maybe that will weaken it for everyone.
Best of luck 'till this thing passes you. It's going to be rough on Cuba too.

We'll survive this one 
It passed over us in as a Cat 1, lots of rain, and winds...power outages etc..left lots of debris on the ground
1 death in south of Island, after a tree fell on residence house
Stay safe sis

A July hurricane in the Lesser Antilles - WTF?
Rained all night here - not heavy in my part of the island. The worst is just coming through now-
Spoke with a good friend in the North East and she says heavy rain but not that much wind. She says the sea lashing the rocks last night in Portland was some thine else and their home is not seaside.
at least it came and went quickly
