Tropical Storm the storm Gains Power As It Moves Towards the Island Nation
Tropical Storm the storm is projected to become a uncommon highest-level hurricane as it veers toward Jamaica, delivering deadly rapid inundation and mudslides.
The cyclone, which had winds of up to 195 km/h as of 0600 Greenwich Mean Time, is currently turning toward the northwest in the Caribbean Sea and is anticipated to make landfall by Tuesday, based on data from hurricane specialists.
Advisories of electricity outages and damage to infrastructure have been released as the hurricane brings up to 76cm of precipitation and sea level surges as high as thirteen feet above normal levels. "Seek shelter now," residents have been urged.
This hurricane is the 13th hurricane in this year's Atlantic season, which usually concludes in November.
Highest-Level Storm Threat
A highest-level hurricane is the strongest type, with sustained winds of at least 157mph.
While Melissa is projected to weaken to a Category 4 hurricane before reaching the island, meteorologists said there was "very little practical difference in the overall impacts" upon landfall, and that the hurricane will be "equally strong" when it hits the country.
Critical Preparations
With tropical storm-level wind and rainfall already expected long before it moves across Jamaica's central region - including potentially the city of Kingston - advisories indicate that "preparations should be rushed to completion".
"An extended timeframe of harmful winds and heavy rainfall has started and will cause catastrophic and life-threatening flash flooding and numerous mudslides," counseled meteorological officials.
Jamaican Prime Minister the statesman commented: "I realize that there are many Jamaicans who are anxious, who are very concerned, and appropriately: concern is justified.
"However the optimal approach to address anxiety and any unease and worry is to remain prepared."
Residents are being told to protect their properties with sand barriers and wooden boards, and to gather essentials.
Wider Impact
Warnings are also ongoing for regions of Haiti including the main city, Port au Prince, the neighboring country and eastern Cuba, where the hurricane is anticipated to bring comparable impacts by the middle portion of the coming week.
Rock slides presently generated by the storm have already killed two in the country, according to the nation's Civil Protection agency.
Expected Course
This weather system is predicted to move across Cuba by the middle of the week before traveling via the Greater Antilles and emerging into the open ocean.
By the moment it makes contact with the Caribbean nation, it is predicted to have reduced to a category three storm.
Climate Connection
While it is difficult to connect individual weather events to global warming, researchers say it is making weather phenomena more common and more severe.
Warmer oceans create additional humidity in the environment, contributing to the formation of tropical cyclones.
Before the commencement of this season's Caribbean cyclone season, meteorological authorities forecast higher-than-average occurrence, citing warmer seas and likely more intense weather patterns around African coastal regions - where Atlantic storms often form.
