This is The Guardian.
Today, living through the horror of Hurricane Melissa.
The wait was agonising.
Reports over the weekend warned Jamaicans that a storm was coming.
and that it would be the strongest and most terrifying since records began.
Making officials telling me they are taking every precaution for what could be a historic event here on the island over the next several days.
The weather coming in, I think this one is different.
This one going to impact us hard.
How do you prepare for the force of the highest category hurricane there is?
God bless us.
We are just praying for the less worse to happen.
The Caribbean has been battered by storms before,
but Hurricane Melissa landed on Jamaica with a power and an intensity that was unprecedented,
as ferocious as it was frightening.
These islands are now under serial threat from catastrophic weather events.
The kind of extreme storms that are being turbocharged by the climate crisis.
And for the people living there, it's a waking nightmare.
