Jamaica is bracing for Hurricane Melissa, which rapidly intensified into a strong Category 4, with 140 mph maximum sustained winds. The storm is currently about 120 miles south-southeast of Kingston, Jamaica and moving at an extremely slow pace of 5 mph. This slow movement is going to be one of the most problematic parts of Melissa as it brings days of torrential rain, flash flooding, storm surge and likely landslides due to the mountainous terrain.

FOX 13 Meteorologist Nash Rhodes is keeping an eye on Tropical Storm Melissa which hasn’t gained or lost strength in the Caribbean since yesterday. However, Melissa is expected to become a major hurricane over the next few days. How strong Melissa gets will depend on whether it interacts with the mountainous islands. He said tropical storm warnings are in effect for Jamaica and Haiti. The American computer model has the storm just east of Jamaica and then turning to the north and east, but the European model has keeps Melissa south and west of Jamaica. He said rain will be the biggest threat to the islands. Rhodes says it is a slow-moving system that will eventually move to the north and east, away from the United States.

All eyes are still on Tropical Storm Melissa as it continues to swirl in the Caribbean. FOX 13 Meteorologist Nash Rhodes said the storm is weakening but will gain strength over the next few days and become a major hurricane. Rhodes said it is unclear where exactly Melissa will go next, but tropical storm watches are up for portions of the Caribbean Islands. Rhodes says there is the potential for damaging flash flooding and mudslides due to a large amount of rain falling over a short period of time. He added that Melissa will take a turn to the north and east, away from the United States.

FOX 13 Meteorologist Nash Rhodes is keeping an eye on Tropical Storm Melissa as it meanders over the Caribbean. As of Wednesday, the storm had maximum sustained winds of 50 miles per hour and was moving west-northwest at two miles per hour. Rhodes says Melissa could become a Category 3 hurricane by Monday morning because it is over warm water and will encounter little wind shear. However, it is expected to take a turn to the north and the east, away from the United States.

FOX 13 Meteorologist Jim Weber is keeping an eye on Tropical Storm Melissa, which formed Tuesday morning in the Caribbean. He said Tropical Storm Melissa will start to work its way to the north and the west as the wind shear increases in some of those areas, creating a less conducive environment for the storm. Even though the National Hurricane Center expects Tropical Storm Melissa to strengthen, it will be a slow process. Weber believes the storm will be around for a while and won’t become a hurricane until this weekend. He notes that it is expected to stay east of the United States.
