Hurricane Melissa, classified as a category 5, with winds of 175 mph, is heading towards Jamaica, where it is expected to arrive on Tuesday. After Jamaica, the storm will affect southeastern Cuba on Wednesday morning and will continue towards the Bahamas later that same day. Although Melissa has begun to move north at a speed of 2 mph, the storm's central pressure has dropped, suggesting a possible intensification. Hurricane warnings are in effect for southeastern and central Bahamas, and the Turks and Caicos Islands are under a tropical storm warning, indicating that strong wind gusts may occur in the next 36 hours.
