Hurricane Melissa has shattered the global record for the DRIEST storm eye ever observed, surpassing Super Typhoon Meranti (2016). The NHC is now warning that the eyewall’s destructive winds may cause “total structural failure, particularly in higher elevations, leading to widespread infrastructural damage, prolonged power and communications outages, and... show more

The sun is setting over Hurricane Melissa with winds of 175 mph. It turns north and moves over Jamaica tomorrow. Catastrophic, life-threatening flash flooding and numerous landslides are expected through tomorrow. The eyewall’s destructive winds may cause total structural failure, particularly in higher elevations, leading to widespread infrastructural damage, prolonged power and communication outages, and isolated communities.

Sunday morning. #Melissa now a category 4, likely heading to a Cat 5 soon. Intensity has increased 60 mph in 24 just hours and that rapid intensification figure will increase as well. NHC message: “Jamaica: Seek shelter now. Damaging winds and heavy rainfall today and on Monday will cause catastrophic and life-threatening flash flooding and numerous landslides before the strongest winds arrive Monday night and Tuesday morning. Extensive infrastructural damage, long-duration power and communication outages, and isolation of communities are expected. Life-threatening storm surge is likely along portions of the southern coast Monday night and Tuesday morning.”

BREAKING: Category 5 Hurricane Melissa’s sustained winds are now roaring at 175 MPH, and the air pressure in her searing eye has sunk to 906 MBAR. The storm is starting to take the northern turn towards Jamaica, and if she intensifies any further, she will begin to approach the mathematical limits of how strong a storm can become in this part of the world.

🚨🇯🇲 RECORD-BREAKING HURRICANE DEVASTATES JAMAICA Hurricane Melissa slammed into Jamaica as a Category 5 storm, the strongest ever recorded in the country. With sustained winds of 185 mph and up to 30 inches of rain, the storm caused catastrophic flooding across Montego Bay and Kingston. Cars were submerged, power lines tangled, and roads blocked as locals waded through floodwaters to assess the damage. Source: BBC, TRT World

This darn storm man... back for more intensification now over the waters between Jamaica and Cuba. The eye has rapidly reformed this evening, with significant lightning in the western side -- that is indicative of fast intensifying hurricanes. Santiago de Cuba is Cuba's 2nd most populated city and could take hurricane conditions overnight. Only three major hurricanes have ever tracked across eastern Cuba in history: Matthew (2016), Ike (2008), Dennis (2005) Melissa will become the fourth overnight into Wednesday morning. Should be a pretty solid storm surge into Guantanamo Bay even away from the eye.

A bridge in the parish of St. Catherine, Jamaica was swallowed by a swollen river on Tuesday as the eye of Hurricane Melissa closed in on the western coast of the country. According to See Jamaica, the channel that live streamed this footage, the bridge is a "vital link between Spanish Town and Linstead." Hurricane Melissa has since made landfall in Jamaica as a Category 5 storm. It is the most powerful hurricane to lash the island since record-keeping began 174 years ago and one of the strongest Atlantic storms ever recorded.

Almost all Major Hurricanes undergo an eyewall replacement cycle. Melissa never did. She sustained CATEGORY 5 status for 35 consecutive hours, the 8TH longest total duration of Cat 5 winds ever documented in an Atlantic Hurricane, and the longest since Hurricane Irma in 2017. Instead of initiating replacement cycles, Melissa underwent eyewall mergers, which caused only short-lived pauses in her intensification and allowed her to incrementally climb to an extreme strength as she slowly writhed towards Jamaica. It is exceptionally rare to see a high-level Hurricane eye remain so perfectly circular and clear for so many days on end.

Jamaica braces for disaster as powerful Hurricane Melissa approaches Hurricane Melissa, a Category 5 storm — the strongest in the world this year and possibly in Jamaica’s history — is closing in on the island. According to the U.S. National Hurricane Center, winds have reached 280 km/h, and massive waves and rainfall could trigger catastrophic flooding. The “storm of the century” has already claimed three lives in Jamaica, while four more people have died in Haiti and the Dominican Republic. The Red Cross estimates that up to 1.5 million people could be affected. The prime minister has ordered the evacuation of coastal areas. Authorities warn of potential landslides, tornadoes, and severe destruction. Tens of thousands are already without power on the island, and more than 500,000 people have been evacuated in Cuba.

🚨🇺🇸🇯🇲 U.S. SENDS $11 MILLION AID PACKAGE TO JAMAICA AFTER HURRICANE MELISSA Washington has announced an initial $11 million in emergency assistance to help Jamaica recover from Hurricane Melissa’s trail of destruction. The hurricane left widespread flooding, destroyed homes, blocked roads, and knocked out power across much of the island. The aid includes food for up to 40,000 people, six new water treatment systems, and vital shelter materials… a lifeline for communities still digging out from the wreckage. Melissa may have passed, but the rebuilding is just beginning, and thankfully America showed up with more than “thoughts and prayers.” Relief is on the way, and every dollar counts. So far, Hurricane Melissa caused at least 67 deaths, up to $4 billion in insured losses in Jamaica and tens of billions of dollars of overall damage throughout the Caribbean.

🇵🇭 PHILIPPINES BRACES FOR ANOTHER SUPER TYPHOON Just days after Typhoon Tino wrecked Cebu and killed over 200 people, another monster is on the way to the Philippines, and this one’s aiming for the island that holds Manila. Typhoon Fung-wong, locally named Uwan, is spinning with winds up to 185 kph and could slam into Luzon on Sunday night. The last storm left half a million people in the dark, with power outages across central islands that could take weeks to fix. A storm of that magnitude will likely tear through the nation's capital, where millions of people are barely coming to terms with the last typhoon. Source: Reuters

JUST IN: An Extreme Wind Warning has been issued for the Pacific island of Rota as the 180 MPH (285 kph) eyewall of Category 5 Super Typhoon Bavi closes in. The NWS is warning that venturing outside can result in DEATH from flying projectiles. Unreinforced structures will be destroyed, power poles will be snapped or toppled, and island-wide vegetation may be obliterated. If you are on Rota, take cover NOW in a reinforced interior room away from windows. Use mattresses, blankets, or pillows to cover your head and body.

What we’re seeing right now could be historic. If Hurricane Humberto is upgraded to a CATEGORY 5, it would mark two consecutive years with multiple Cat 5s in the Atlantic. That hasn’t happened since the Great Depression. Every satellite frame is more intense than the last. The 145 MPH eyewall is only getting more deeply submerged in a whirling ice bath of convection.

🚨 It’s happening. Our Storm is entering BOMB GENESIS MODE and is now rapidly strengthening. 💨 Conditions about to head downhill in a HURRY as Winds begin to CRANK close to Hurricane Force this evening , especially near the Carolina coastline. ⏬ Over the next 24 hours, this Storm is expected to drop 35 millibars in pressure, rivaling the rate of intensification seen in some of the MOST EXTREME Hurricanes in recent years. 🌀 At peak intensity, pressure could fall as low as 967 mb, territory normally reserved for a Category 3 Hurricane. 🌬️ That kind of pressure drop will drive WIND GUSTS up to 70 mph on land, particularly along the Carolina coast. This is near HURRICANE FORCE. 🌊Over the open water of the Atlantic, Winds could get as high as 100mph during the height of the Storm. Just insane. ❄️ The combination of HOWLING WIND and HEAVY SNOW will produce BLIZZARD CONDITIONS for many. ⁉️We should have widespread Blizzard Warnings across eastern North Carolina. Not sure why the NWS is holding back. But that doesn't matter. ❤️The HEART OF THE STORM is still ahead of us. 🔏LOCK IN. Hang on, my brotheren. With a little luck and a lot of toilet paper, we will all get through this. Godspeed and good luck 👊

Hurricane Erin has been driven into a ferocious feeding frenzy by the heat energy of the SW Atlantic. Rarely do you see a storm outside of the West Pacific undergo such extreme RI as this. In 24 hours, her winds have more than DOUBLED, from 70 mph to 145 MPH, and her core pressure has plunged from 998 mbar to 935 MBAR. This is an exceptionally rapid rate of deepening for an open Atlantic Hurricane. Erin’s pressure continues to plummet by 6-8 mbar per hour based on Hurricane Hunter recon data, and she is now knocking on the door of Category 5 status.

The Philippines can’t catch a break in the wake of Typhoon Kalmaegi (TinoPH), because just as that system heads deeper into the Vietnamese jungle, a new leviathan has emerged from the depths of the Pacific. On the right side of this satellite loop is Tropical Storm Fung-wong, a sprawling embryonic cyclone in the Philippine Sea. She may be weak and disorganized now, but the environment ahead is going to be favorable for rapid intensification. The island of Luzon is her most likely target for landfall. Watch this one closely.

UPDATE: With only a few hours left before landfall in Luzon, colossal Typhoon Fung-wong (UwanPH) has hit a new peak intensity. Her sustained winds are now at 130 MPH (210 kph), and the sea-level pressure in her giant eye has fallen to 943 mbar, making her a CATEGORY 4 storm. This will be the strongest Typhoon to hit the Philippines since Man-yi (Pepito) in November of last year, and is coming just 5 days after Kalmaegi (Tino) ravaged Cebu Island.

Tropical Storm Dolphin formed only 17 hours ago and already she is constructing a frantic inner core, with boiling, dry-ice bubbles of convection deep freezing the embryonic eyewall structure hidden beneath the cloud tops. This compact, fast-growing behavior seems to be priming Dolphin for explosively rapid intensification. From the very first advisory, she has been forecast to become a Super Typhoon, and everything we’re seeing right now looks to be snowballing in that direction.
