I keep hearing about, and getting, fake disaster videos. Not sure who’s sick enough to spend time doing that, but if you want legit updates, check out the reels at JamaicaObserver on IG.

We did, for our 6 lb chihuahua.
He loved it, but wouldn’t leave our bed until after I put worn pajamas in it.

After a devastating landfall in Jamaica, Major Hurricane #Melissa has emerged north of the island. In a few hours it will strike again, this time in southern Cuba.

Definition of second wind - blowing intensely from the opposite direction now.

Most schools in rural areas are used as shelters - that would be doubly bad.

Seeing too many photos and videos of extreme storm surges, flooded streets, and fierce wind taking off whole roofs - in tact - from hospitals and schools.

They actually… apologized
By 4:36PM
We want to sincerely apologize for our poorly-timed email, in light of what's happening in Jamaica right now. We had planned this giveaway over the last few weeks and scheduled our posts ahead of time, and we should have caught this before it went to you. We are devastated by the news. Our thoughts are with those on the island, and hope that they remain safe.

Based on the photos, videos and phone calls I’ve gotten in the past 48 hours, climate change has completely f—ked up my home country of Jamaica, and the major aid resources we’ve been depending on for decades are diminished, defunded or dismantled.

The rush of the storm surges are daunting to think of, 13 feet??? in Treasure Beach? even 4 feet in Ochi.

Melissa made landfall in Jamaica as a cat 5 with wind speeds around *185 mph*, I think only the second recorded storm to ever do that. That's as strong as an F4 tornado, only, you know, hurricane-sized.

NEW: Hurricane Melissa is now making landfall in Jamaica.

This is the terrifying sight at Treasure Beach on the island right now; somehow the camera still working.

I have never heard wind like it.
