Hurricane Melissa has unleashed catastrophic destruction across the Caribbean. The Category 5 storm tore through Jamaica and by the time reached Cuba, it turned into a Category 3 storm leaving entire towns underwater and millions without power. Winds up to 185 mph ripped off roofs, flooded hospitals, and destroyed farmlands as thousands fled in terror. Cuban authorities evacuated 735,000 people before the storm made landfall near Chivirico. Melissa’s wrath has left at least 7 dead across the region, with more feared missing. The Caribbean faces one of its worst hurricanes in decades, and the nightmare isn’t over — as Melissa heads for the Bahamas, forecasters warn of more devastation ahead.
