In the early hours of Tuesday, Hurricane Melissa made its presence felt in Montego Bay, Jamaica, as a commercial building on Barnett Street suffered significant damage. At approximately 3:00 am, powerful winds associated with the hurricane dislodged a section of the building’s roof. The detached roof was carried by the wind and landed on the adjacent road and the nearby fire station compound, causing damage to several parked vehicles. Firefighters swiftly responded to the scene, clearing the debris and ensuring the road was reopened for traffic. This incident highlights the destructive potential of Hurricane Melissa as it continues to impact the region.
