Hurricane Melissa is set to bring catastrophic winds, flooding and storm surge to Jamaica, forecasters have warned.

Celebrity Beyond’s Oct. 26 itinerary will visit the Western Caribbean rather than the Eastern Caribbean, according to the cruise line’s parent company, Royal Caribbean Group. The ship will visit Costa Maya in Mexico, Belize and Roatan, Honduras.

Melissa has 175 mph winds and is moving north-northeast at about 5 mph, with its center about 115 miles southwest of Kingston, Jamaica. The storm has a minimum central pressure of 901 mb as of the National Hurricane Center's 5 a.m. Tuesday advisory update.

HUNTSVILLE, Ala. ( WAFF) - Huntsville is home to many from Jamaica who still have friends and family in the Caribbean. They are calling Hurricane Melissa “historic” and “unheard of” as they wait to hear from their loved ones. On Tuesday, two Huntsville residents sat down with WAFF 48’s Faith Delp.

Melissa made landfall on Jamaica's southwestern coast around midday Tuesday as a Category 5 storm, with sustained winds of 185 mph, making it the strongest hurricane of the Atlantic season to date and the most powerful hurricane to ever hit the island.

"It is more than kind of distressing because you don't know when and you don't know how," said Ewan Simpson, who lives in Jamaica.

Melissa developed into a deadly Category 5 hurricane Monday, Oct. 27, and is expected to have historically catastrophic impacts on the northern Caribbean.
