Well there's this site:

http://www.wunderground.com/cgi-bin/histGraphAll?day=10&year=2004&month=9&ID=78397&type=3

...which, as you can see, went off the air sometime between 4 and 5pm. There's also the NOAA weather station near Kingston:

...which went down sometime between 5 and 6pm, and the radar station at Kingston:

http://www.metservice.gov.jm/radarpage.asp

...which appears to have gone down sometime before 4pm. So I'd say all in all it's not looking too good for Jamaica, even with the eye appearing to miss it. Some of these things could well be power-related, but I think it's going to be an ugly scene there once the sun comes up.
