Hurricane Melissa is now among the most powerful Atlantic hurricanes on record.
The monster storm strengthened Tuesday before hitting Jamaica, bringing with it maximum sustained winds of 185 mph (295 kph). It's the strongest Atlantic hurricane to make landfall since Hurricane Dorian battered the Bahamas in 2019.
