“Even a weakened hurricane retains the capacity to bring serious devastation,” said the Minister of State with Responsibility for Disaster Risk Management, Leon Lundy.
The hurricane, which lashed Jamaica as a category 5 storm with winds in excess of 180 miles per hour (mph) is now 150 miles south of Central Bahamas with maximum sustained winds of 110 mph.
