I have a good friend who has family in Jamaica. I will ask her to send me links for organizations that will assist those in need, which I'm sure will be massive.
I am moving this now to the Jamaica forum.

The people living in Jamaica need ours prayers. The people living in SXM know all too well what they will be going through today and for months afterwards.

I dont think it will be good for west side of island, Montego Bay or Negril. Big Storm barreling due north. Standby for high winds and heavy seas.

Images are starting to come out of Jamaica and it is heart breaking. Declared a disaster zone by the Prime Minister.

My friend's family is mainly on the west end, which was hit the hardest. She hasn't heard from them yet.

My friend still hasn't heard directly from her family, but someone from that area said they thought that everyone was safe. Hopefully she will hear soon.
