you can tell, if this storm holds off and goes west of jamaica, then turns north, then the peninsula of florida has an issue with it, if it rides toward the east and turns north near haiti, then it moves up toward the bahamas and eventually rounds about. so at this point, i can tell you i think there are going to be big problems in jamaica and haiti and eastern cuba. this whole area because this major hurricane, at least a category three hurricane over the weekend. it's going to start to slow down. that's typical as the storm starts to make a turn, it just doesn't whip around a corner, it slows down and then makes that turn and that's going to keep it in the caribbean for the next couple of days and that's where you don't want it to be as conditions become a little more favorable for development. you're looking at the potential of a major hurricane just off the eastern tip of jamaica on monday morning. keeping in mind this cone of error so it could be closer to haiti or it actually could be just to the west of jamaica so that's a big difference and then, of course, the cone gets larger as you g
