The X post from @volcaholic1

 shares heartbreaking footage of Hurricane Melissa's aftermath in Black River, St. Elizabeth, Jamaica, depicting flooded streets, collapsed tin-roofed buildings, downed power lines, and scattered debris amid overcast skies.

Hurricane Melissa, a rare Category 5 storm with 185 mph winds, made historic landfall in Jamaica on October 28, 2025, tying records for Atlantic basin intensity and causing at least seven deaths, widespread power outages, and severe infrastructure damage in southern parishes like St. Elizabeth.

Replies highlight the destruction of the 1837 St. John Anglican Parish Church and calls for global building code reforms to favor resilient concrete structures over vulnerable tin roofs in hurricane-prone regions.
