Hurricane Melissa , live webcam at Kingston Harbour, Jamaica

I know many of us are worried for people in Jamaica, in particular Malaise who lives there. I found a live webcam that is in Kingston Harbour. Hurricane is supposed to start affecting the island today. You can already see wind and the sea is starting to swell.

Typically a day or two before, you start getting choppy waters.
