And to think, the theoretical Maximum Potential Intensity in this area is somewhere around 875 mb (+/-), and Melissa is currently sporting observed pressures of roughly 892-893 mb…
Makes one wonder just how close to the physical limit Melissa will get. We’ll have a lot to learn from this one storm.

Final post from me tonight. Melissa is now definitively moving to the north/northeast. At its present heading, it's looking like a landfall near or just west of Treasure Beach.
Conditions will really deteriorate from here. My thoughts are with everyone on the island. Hang on, folks.
