Before and After: The devastating impact of Hurricane Melissa on Black River, St. Elizabeth#wicnews #hurricane #hurricanemelissa #Category5 #Jamaica


 


The X post from WIC News contrasts pre-hurricane footage of St. John the Evangelist Anglican Church in Black River, Jamaica, with video evidence of post-Hurricane Melissa devastation, including flooded streets, collapsed power lines, and debris-strewn homes in St. Elizabeth parish.

Hurricane Melissa, a rare Category 5 storm that made landfall on October 28, 2025, is Jamaica's strongest recorded hurricane, causing at least dozens of deaths, widespread flooding, and infrastructure damage due to its slow 5 mph movement, per BBC and NYT reports.

Public responses to the post highlight concern for rebuilding, with one user seeking verified donation organizations amid fears of aid mismanagement, reflecting broader challenges in post-disaster recovery in the Caribbean.

The panel itself was stacked. Marvel used the Saturday evening Hall H slot to spotlight upcoming MCU projects, including *Avengers: Doomsday*, appearances by members of that film’s sprawling cast, confirmation or strong teases around a Ghost ...

Image
On Sunday evening, Australian viewers tuning into *MasterChef Australia* were treated to more than just high-stakes cooking. During Meghan, Duchess of Sussex’s guest-judging appearance, Prince Harry dialled in via FaceTime in a moment that felt both spontaneous and carefully staged for maximum charm. The episode, filmed in April 2026 at the Melbourne Showgrounds during the couple’s four-day private visit to Australia, saw Meghan mentoring contestants alongside regular judges Poh Ling Yeow, Sofia Levin and Jean-Christophe Novelli.
