Extreme Hurricane Melissa Makes Landfall in Jamaica

Today we track Major Hurricane Melissa moving ashore in Jamaica. Melissa is an extreme hurricane. It will landfall today as possibly one of the 2 or 3 strongest hurricanes to ever hit land in the Atlantic basin. Melissa, as of typing this just an hour or two from landfall, is packing winds of 175mph, and a central pressure somewhere in the 890s. It will challenge the Labor Day Hurricane of 1935 for the strongest known landfall on record by pressure. This will re-write any and every record book in Jamaica, especially on the Western half. Devastating winds over 200mph in some gusts, will obliterate all but the most well-built structures. Surge 9-13 feet will engulf bays and harbors. Catastrophic flooding is already ongoing and will continue through early tomorrow. Our thoughts and prayers are with the people of Jamaica, Cuba, and the Bahamas as Melissa moves through. Melissa is no threat to the Eastern US, but will likely hit Bermuda Friday as a hurricane, albeit much weaker than her current state. ------------ Redbeard Wx is the YouTube outlet of Redbeard's Weather Page from Facebook.
