Hurricane Melissa Tropical Cyclone Update

300 PM EDT Tue Oct 28 2025

...CATASTROPHIC WINDS, FLASH FLOODING, AND STORM SURGE ONGOING IN 
JAMAICA...
...REMAIN SHELTERED IN YOUR SAFE PLACE...

THIS IS AN EXTREMELY DANGEROUS AND LIFE-THREATENING SITUATION! Do 
not leave your shelter as the eye passes over, as winds will rapidly 
increase on the other side of the eye. Residents should not leave 
their shelter and should remain in place through the passage of 
these life-threatening conditions.

To protect yourself from wind, the best thing you can do is put as 
many walls as possible between you and the outside. An interior room 
without windows, ideally one where you can also avoid falling trees, 
is the safest place you can be in a building. You can cover yourself 
with a mattress and wear a helmet for added protection.

The next position update will be provided at 400 PM EDT (2000 UTC).
