KINGSTON, JAMAICA – View of Downtown Kingston as Hurricane Melissa is expected to make landfall Monday night or Tuesday morning.
Melissa rapidly intensified over the weekend and is now a Category 5 hurricane with 165 mph winds. Its outer bands are already lashing Jamaica with wind and rain. Jamaican government officials are now giving updates about the progress of Hurricane Melissa as it churns toward Jamaica.
Catastrophic impact: Up to 40 inches of rain, 13 feet of storm surge and 160 mph sustained winds will cause “extensive infrastructure damage” that will cut off communities, the National Hurricane Center warned.
Jamaica’s worst hurricane: Mandatory evacuation orders have been issued for vulnerable coastal areas of Jamaica ahead of what will likely be the strongest storm on record to hit the country. Melissa has already killed three people in Haiti and one person in the Dominican Republic.
Extreme rapid intensification: Melissa more than doubled in strength over the weekend, increasing its winds by 70 mph in just 24 hours. More tropical systems are rapidly intensifying and wringing out more rain as the atmosphere and ocean warm due to fossil fuel pollution.
