Jamaica Radar

#1 Postby cycloneye » Wed Jul 06, 2005 2:56 pm

I haved searched around the net but I can't find a radar from Kingston or from Montego Bay.It will be very helpful for all of us to see that radar as the center of Dennis or passes south,over or north of that island.

The radar might be gone thanks to Ivan. Those images are impressive though. You can clearly see Ivan's double eyewall.

oh, radio jamaica. I have never heard a more calm broadcast during a crisis as theirs during Ivan last year. It was all island music and the dj having *suds* during the breaks with the other guy who had stuck around to run the station. All was well until the station just went dead. Then it was just creepy...
