Drone footage reveals the devastation in Lacovia, Jamaica, where Hurricane Melissa left homes in ruins, roads underwater, and power knocked out across the region.


 


- AccuWeather's post shares drone footage from Lacovia, Jamaica, capturing widespread flooding of homes and roads, collapsed structures including a church, and residents voicing despair over the destruction caused by Hurricane Melissa's landfall.

- Hurricane Melissa, the strongest storm to hit Jamaica on record as a Category 5 with 160 mph winds on October 28, 2025, intensified rapidly due to warm Caribbean waters exacerbated by climate change, per NOAA reports, leading to historic devastation in southern parishes like St. Elizabeth.

- The storm has claimed at least four lives in Jamaica and 20 in Haiti, with ongoing recovery challenged by power outages affecting 80% of the island and international aid mobilizing from the UN and Red Cross for rebuilding efforts.
