TS Melissa, lingering for literal days just south of Hispaniola and Jamaica; the rainfall alone is triggering all sorts of emergency conditions even before it becomes a hurricane, let alone the *major* hurricane projected later this week.

This is super fucked up.

#Weather #TSMelissa

Tropical Storm Melissa’s forecast has undergone mostly cosmetic changes this morning. A damaging, severe hurricane with wide-ranging impacts in Haiti, Jamaica, and Cuba is likely. We continue to be focused on heavy rainfall and multiple days of hurricane impacts in very vulnerable locations.
