Hurricane force winds extend 60 miles from the center, and tropical force winds extend up to 205 miles

Jamaica is 146 miles in length, and 50 miles wide, so a direct hit would cover the entire island.

I've had such a bad feeling about this storm since its inception, and I pray that my feelings are incorrect - Linda
