Melissa is expected to strengthen from a tropical storm into a major hurricane this weekend.
The storm could bring “life-threatening and catastrophic” flash flooding and landslides to parts of the Caribbean.
Jamaica, Haiti, and the Dominican Republic are particularly at risk early next week.
Residents in these areas are advised to stay alert and prepare for potentially severe weather conditions.
