TRACKING THE TROPICS: Hurricane Melissa continues to strengthen as it approaches Jamaica. It is currently a Category 5 hurricane . This will be the first time ever in recorded history a Category 5 hurricane makes landfall in Jamaica. The strongest hurricane to ever hit Jamaica was at category four storm in 1988. 2-3ft of rainfall will bring catastrophic flooding and landslides to the island. Destructive winds will bring power outages and extensive infrastructural damage for days and even weeks. Significant storm surge of 9 - 13 ft is expected through tomorrow morning along the Eastern portions of Jamaica. Haiti and the Dominican Republic will continue to face Melissa's wrath as it slowly moves north and wraps around more heavy rainfall and damaging winds to the neighboring islands. Eastern Cuba, Turks and Caicos and the Bahamas will be the next areas of concern as hurricane Melissa continues its northern path Tuesday and Wednesday.
