Thursday midday update on #TropicalStormMelissa. The system is organizing and should be a #hurricane by the weekend. The forecast still calls for slow movement north before a turn to the west but a lot of uncertainty still. We will have a full blog update later today.

An updated blog on #Melissa and the rest of the #weather across the US

Steam rises in the air on the coldest morning of the season so far across our Kentucky stations! A few got close to freezing. #KYWX Explore all of our stations here: hubs.li/Q03Q0KXC0

This #sunset from Florida State University on Thursday was too incredible not to share. A halo around the sun, sundog, contrails, and amazing colors, all indicating a moistening atmosphere with rain expected soon! Check the forecast here: hubs.li/Q03Q15b10

High pressure building across the Southeast US has led to gusty winds along the East coast of Florida today. The combination of that high pressure and Melissa over the Caribbean will keep winds gusty and #ripcurrent risk high this weekend. #FLWX

Soon-to-be Hurricane #Melissa sets its sights on #Jamaica and we take a look at the #weather around the US as well: hubs.li/Q03Q6dVH0

Sunrise on dangerous Category 4 Hurricane #melissa additional strengthening is possible. #Jamaica should be sheltering now as heavy rain will cause dangerous flash flooding before the strongest winds arrive Monday Night

#Melissa strengthened to a 160 mph Category 5 Hurricane earlier today making it the 3rd one of the 2025 Season. Torrential rain will continue to fall over Jamaica today before the storm makes landfall sometime tomorrow.

Our stations across Gulf and Bay Counties in Florida caught the strong line of storms that came through this morning. Gulf Veterans Memorial Park gusted to 54 mph which you can see in the data and at the end of the video. NWS Tallahassee Jim Cantore
