So far, windguru isn't showing major winds over the weekend. We just did an SXM trip this past Sept right as Lee (I think) was passing. We'd watched the NHC/NOAA maps and it scared the crap out of us as we were packing. The owner of the villa sent us a windguru link showing they weren't expecting much except the lighter, shifting winds and it was correct. That said, watching even their map, you're right, it's way to close for comfort. Slight shift and everything changes. https://www.windguru.cz/map/?lat=18.08&lon=-63.02&zoom=9
