Dean Moving Past Jamaica..

Been an amazing night. Dean slides along under Jamaica... almost touching, barely touching... will see what the final obs and post game analysis shows. Listened to Jim all day and heard people calling in from Jamaica, on news radio, etc.

Why listen to Jim? I'll give you an example. When Fox was live talking about the storm, showing the same 10 seconds of footage over and over the news anchor said they weren't sure if Jamaica was still able to broadcast TV or Radio and they might be under a complete blackout now.. meanwhile Jim was streaming live as we were listening to Radio out of Jamaica with people calling in and Mets giving real time forecasts for the Jamaica area. When CNN and TWC was saying "Dean is sliding past the southern coast of Jamaica" Jim was naming neighborhoods, small towns and giving exact data to people listening who had family there. CNN wasn't sure radio stations were broadcasting but Jim was broadcasting the stations that were still working...

Amazing.

So..that's it. The kids had a blast at the Paintball Party while I sat home with Jim and Dean and Jay my brother in Greece online and TWC on and talking to friends. Life in the fast lane. And a new Doobie Brothers CD from my on and off guy friend too!

So... keep watching Dean, listening to Jim, watch The Weather Channel and keep an eye on the tropics because in a few days when Dean is gone, a new system may pop up and threaten Florida. Or maybe it won't. Time will tell lol haha. Sorry, nite for now. Bobbi
Let us pray Jamaica came through without a high death toll and let's hope Dean was kind. Nite
