Now about Sandy, the storm is now just south of Jamaica and will cross that island today and then Eastern Cuba tonight before moving into the Bahamas on Friday.

This is a low confidence forecast for a possible high impact event, we should have a better handle on what will happen in a couple of days, stay tuned..
