Abstract

The article focuses on Hurricane Melissa, which is moving northeast toward Bermuda after causing significant destruction in the Caribbean. As of Thursday morning, the storm was located 685 miles southwest of Bermuda and was classified as a Category 2 hurricane, expected to weaken as it approaches cooler waters. The hurricane made landfall in Jamaica as a Category 5 storm, resulting in at least 33 fatalities and an estimated economic loss of $8 billion, primarily affecting Jamaica. Recovery efforts in Jamaica are hindered by severe flooding and communication disruptions, while the Bahamas experienced violent winds and flooding, though conditions were expected to improve.
