SAR satellite images are showing the intensity of #Melissa. #Jamaica will have to brace for what looks like a catastrophic and generational storm. It is shaping up to bring catastrophic winds and flooding to the Island.

Looking at the ensembles for low #94 (soon to be #Imelda) shows a forecasters headache. It could go east and dance with #Humberto or interact with a cut off low and head straight for a US landfall. More time is needed to reduce uncertainties.
