This is what Public Accounts are saying is happening right now on the lost island of Jamaica.
Hospitals across Jamaica have been devastated as Hurricane Melissa tears through the island with Category 5 strength. First responders are calling the situation “beyond critical.”
In St. Elizabeth Parish, the Black River Hospital suffered roof collapses and power loss, forcing staff to evacuate patients as floodwaters rose. Health Minister Christopher Tufton confirmed that at least four major hospitals have sustained severe structural damage, while others operate on emergency power.
Doctors and nurses are working in darkness, using flashlights to treat patients as fuel, oxygen, and supplies run low. Rescue efforts remain stalled by blocked roads and widespread power outages that have left more than half a million Jamaicans without electricity. Officials warn that the country’s health system is nearing collapse as Hurricane Melissa continues to unleash catastrophic winds and flooding across the island.
Jamaica is now feeling the full fury of Hurricane Melissa. This is one of the most powerful storms the island has ever faced—and very likely the strongest of 2025. The eye has crossed onto land, and what is unfolding will be etched into the record books.
Wind-speeds have surged into the 175 mph range, with reconnaissance aircraft recording values near 185 mph and a central pressure dropping to 892 millibars—figures that place Melissa among the strongest Atlantic hurricanes ever documented.
What happens now is waiting — and enduring. The eye has taken hold: the damage is being done right now. This is a long-duration event. The storm’s force, its rains, surge, and winds will leave a mark long after its passage. Homes will be flattened, people displaced, infrastructure gutted. Many lives will be forever changed.
If you’re reading this while the storm is underway: stop what you’re doing, offer a prayer for Jamaica. The island is going through a life-changing event. It will never be the same.
This is developing: MELISSA IS NOW ONE OF THE STRONGEST HURRICANES EVER RECORDED IN THE ATLANTIC BASIN.
The new 2PM update now has sustained winds of 175 mph and gusts approaching 220 mph. Pressure now down to 906 mb.
Catastrophic impacts coming to the Island of Jamaica later tonight.
May God have mercy on Jamaica

…241 MPH WIND GUST! One of the strongest wind gusts ever recorded in a hurricane was just measured by hurricane hunters who continue to fly through Melissa tonight. This extreme wind gust was recorded approximately 700 feet above the ocean’s surface; this phenomenon is absolutely terrifying…
The National Hurricane Center warned on Saturday, “Melissa is still expected to make landfall in Jamaica as an upper-end Category 4 hurricane, which could be the strongest direct landfall for the island since tropical cyclone record keeping has been made in the Atlantic Basin.”
While Melissa could make landfall as a high-end Category 4 storm or even a Category 5, the practical difference between the two is minimal.
There will be catastrophic winds, rainfall, mudslides and impacts from Melissa, regardless of whether the storm strikes as a Category 4 or 5.
Anyone who did not leave Jamaica now cannot.. the window has closed..
Just look at this nightmare as it spins..

Earlier Sunday, Minister of Local Government Desmond McKenzie urged residents in low-lying and flood-prone areas to evacuate immediately.
Speaking ahead of the storm, he warned that many communities may not survive the expected flooding. “It is going to be impossible for us, after all the attempts that we have been making…for us to say to our first responders ‘go out and risk your life,’” McKenzie said.
We are praying and hoping.. but we are fearing we will see some really awful news events coming out of Jamaica in the next several hours and upcoming days and weeks..
Strong wording from the National Hurricane Center for Jamaica ahead of Hurricane Melissa:
“Do not venture out of your safe shelter. Catastrophic and life-threatening flash flooding and numerous landslides are likely today through Tuesday. Destructive winds, especially in the mountains, will begin by this evening, leading to extensive infrastructural damage, long-lasting power and communication outages, and isolated communities. Life-threatening storm surge and damaging waves are expected along the southern coast through Tuesday.”
This could be the worst storm that #Jamaica has ever experienced..
In just 18 hours Melissa has rapidly intensified from a 70 MPH Tropical Storm to a 140 MPH Cat. 4 hurricane–at least at the time this is written. It is undoubtedly going to zoom to a Cat. 5 before landfall in Jamaica Tuesday morning.
It is also being predicted that it will be the worst Jamaica has ever experienced..
It would appear that the worst of the fearful predictions are coming true..
Sustained winds of 170+ and gust of 200+ MPH are possible at maximum if it continues at this rate. The highest sustained wind speed ever recorded in the Atlantic basin was 190 MPH from Hurricane Allen in 1980.
Watching this storm in motion is frightening..
Hurricane Melissa has explosively intensified from a Category 1 to Category 4 storm in just the last 12 hours.
This is the worst-case scenario for Jamaica, as Melissa could make landfall as a Category 5 storm early Tuesday morning. pic.twitter.com/9cq0RLnKib
This looks too br a recipe for a disaster over certain parts of the CARRIBEAN…
Tropical Storm Melissa is forecast to rapily intensify into a major hurricane this weekend as it lashes Jamaica and parts of the northern Caribbean, bringing days of life-threatening, potentially catastrophic impact.

Jamaica looks to be the epicenter for the worst of Melissa’s triple threat of extreme rainfall flooding, wind damage and storm surge. Melissa could make landfall on Jamaica late Monday or early Tuesday.Haiti also continues to be in thick of Melissa’s destructive flood and landslide threats.
Hurricane Erin has taken a few turns that have now created a much more dramatic situation for the coastline—reaching all the way up into the Mid-Atlantic and even New York City.
Storm surge is now expected for New York Harbor, Raritan Bay, the waters around Staten Island, the entire Jersey Shore, all of Delaware, Maryland, Virginia, and North Carolina’s coastlines, as well as the northern half of South Carolina’s coastline.
For days, official storm trackers maintained that Erin would remain safely offshore. But many amateur forecasters began noticing a subtle westward trend several days ago. That trend has continued. While the storm is still expected to stay mostly out to sea, portions of the East Coast will now face impacts that simply weren’t predicted earlier in the week.
Hurricane Erin on Saturday strengthened into a fearsome Category 5 hurricane with sustained winds of 160 mph as the storm traveled west over the Atlantic, according to the National Hurricane Center.
And 200 mph gusts…
This could go down in history as one of the strongest storms ever in the Atlantic. At this point, there are some observations of a slight wobble to the south and west, and that needs to be monitored pretty closely because the track still has the storm quickly taking a sharp northern turn and out to sea, avoiding all land and Bermuda. Let’s hope the fish enjoy Hurricane Erin, and we don’t.
In the meantime, any deviation to the path could create obstacles for landfall or at least beaches. But let’s hope the current track stays exactly like it is, and we don’t have to worry about Hurricane Erin making its own weather pattern due to its strength. Everyone will be watching this one closely.
And if nothing happens, as we predict it will not based off of the current forecasts, it does offer a cautionary tale. Hurricanes are very strong this time of year in a very hot Atlantic Ocean, and this could portend trouble eventually for the Northeast—areas that have not seen the impacts of a Category 4 or 5 storm in our lifetime.
The summer of 2025 will be remembered for excessive tropical heat and a lot of rain, 3100 flash floods so far, and counting.
The summer of 2025 has been anything but normal. A map drenched in deep green tells the story: this has truly been the year of rain.
With nearly 3,100 flash flood warnings issued so far, 2025 now holds the record for the most flash flood warnings ever issued year-to-date in the history of the National Weather Service. Let that sink in.
From East Texas to Western Kentucky to New Jersey, the scenes have been heartbreaking with destructive flash floods, roads ripped apart, homes lost, and lives changed in moments..
It’s not just flash flooding either. We’ve seen rivers rise 20 feet in under an hour. Towns and rural regions that have never seen water like this are going under, some for the first time ever.
We feel it. We know something is different. Now, the data is finally catching up with our instincts.
This isn’t normal. And whatever this is… it’s only just beginning.
The weather doesn’t feel normal .. but what’s normal anyway?
Let’s talk about the weather.
Not just talk about it—like the typical elevator banter, “hot enough for ya?”—but really talk about it. Because we all feel it. We all know it. It’s weird. It’s also kind of scary.
Just last night, a tornado warning was issued for Washington, D.C. While the nation’s capital was spared the worst of a swirling twister, there was flooding, strong winds, and some eerie images—one in particular: a live shot of the White House glowing green. That famous greenish aura, the kind that shows up right before a tornado hits.

That same night, floodwaters surged through parts of North Carolina. Wilmington, Delaware was being hit hard. Parts of Philadelphia were also dealing with flash floods and powerful winds. And all this came just days after that catastrophic flood in Texas.
The amount of water that fell in that part of Texas? Equivalent to more than two days’ worth of what flows over Niagara Falls.
Then, in New Mexico, just a few days later, a river rose more than 20 feet in 45 minutes. Harrowing images followed: houses being swept down the torrent. Just like Texas. Chicago? It received two months’ worth of rain—it’s being called a once in a 500 year event.
Is it normal?
Well, tornadoes have hit D.C. before—one famously struck during the War of 1812. We know North Carolina floods. We know Texas saw severe flooding in the 1980s. And sure, disasters happen. Weather does what weather does.
But you feel it too, don’t you? This is different. Something’s off.
It’s not just one big event, it’s that they’re stacking up like Pringles. Historic event after historic event, with barely a breath in between. We haven’t had a quiet stretch in a long while. If you haven’t noticed that by now, maybe you’re lucky. Or maybe you’re not looking.
Now, we’ve got two sides of the narrative spinning at once. On one end, you’ve got the conspiracy thinkers saying cloud seeding has gone too far, that this is HAARP-level military weather control. Weather modification gone rogue.
We do know that cloud seeding operations are real. They’re not fake news, and they’re happening now. We also know that there was a cloud seeding event in Texas on July 2nd. It was just 2 days before the July 4th flooding. However, Augustus Doricko who’s in charge of a company doing it, has been interviewed on Fox News and said that his seating operation is regulated by the state. And did not contribute to the flooding:
On the other side, you’ve got the climate scientists saying this is exactly what they’ve warned us about for decades. That it’s happening.
And the rest of us? The normies. The background characters. We’re standing in between the two ends, getting hammered by alerts, stories, photos, and raw panic deluged by the weather, but also overwhelmed by what (if anything) we can do about it.
Call it the climate crisis. Call it the weather modification crisis. Either way, the debate is ongoing. But the question that should haunt us all is this:
Are we just having a streak of bad luck? Or is something deeper happening?
Just the other day, we reported on that study about the Southern Ocean current—the one that’s been slowing down since at least 2016, maybe earlier. Could that be the missing piece? Could it explain what’s going on?
It all sounds a little too close to the plot of The Day After Tomorrow, doesn’t it?
Or Art Bell and Whitley Strieber’s The Coming Global Superstorm, a book that inspired the film. Remember the premise? That the ocean currents could stop, or drastically slow, and that would shift weather permanently, triggering a new Ice Age.
In the movie, it happened in 24 hours. Maybe real life isn’t that fast. But still the idea of a “quickening” doesn’t mean millions of years anymore. It might mean decades. Years. Or months.
Back to the Southern Ocean for a moment because this part really matters. One of the key findings in that study was that surface water is sinking while deeper water is rising. That’s the problem. Or at least, one of the big ones. This reversal disrupts the natural balance and has a dangerous side effect: it brings ancient, carbon-rich waters—trapped deep below for centuries—up to the surface. And when that happens, it increases the amount of carbon being released into the atmosphere. We’re talking about water that hasn’t seen the light of day since long before industrial civilization. We have no real idea what happens when that kind of deep ocean memory is stirred. This is uncharted.
One of our favorite youtubers, Mr. MBB333 has been on this for a long time. And yesterday, he made a lengthy live stream job, the documents, some of the changes going on across the planet. If you have the time, it’s really worth watching.
And if that’s true, if Earth changes are truly unfolding right in front of us, then here’s the real kicker:
Can we even stop it?
Well, it’s certainly not stopping yet. And according to this video from a really good weather source that we enjoy watching another series of bad storms with flooding, it’s about to unfoldld.. from Max velocity:
Or is this just one of those things that will happen no matter what? Whether humans helped speed it up or not?
