This has beaten Milton in pressure, and with 170 kt flight wind, I would argue it’s either tied or slightly beaten Allen.

This is such a terrible situation and my heart goes out to Jamaica, the most intense landfalling hurricane in 90 years (maybe ever, the HDOB cut off before the exact center) and its intensifying into a mountainous region right up until landfall.

893mb and with a 55 knot flight level wind... we're probably 892-891. Unreal. We're about to see a sub-900mb landfall in the Atlantic.

The person who said "880s are still in play" may be devilishly correct since the plane barely entered the eye

And I thought Milton, the first sub-900 mb storm in almost 20 years, would be 'generational'. This goes above and beyond.

893 mb extrap.....ummm This might be a worse case scenario for Jamaica's landfall
This will be the FINAL Melissa but this hurricane wont be forgotten by anyone who tracked her.
-2.67 eye at its driest aswell...this is just beyond my wildest expectations :double: :double:

Yesterday people said that Melissa is probably what the 1932 Cuba hurricane would look like on satellite.

Now... This is probably what the 1935 Labor Day hurricane would look like on satellite.

This is this generation's Wilma moment. We'll still talk about this storm for decades to come. Unfortunately, unlike Wilma, this one will make landfall at its insane peak intensity. Prayers to all in Jamaica, I don't know what else to say.

I can't even imagine what must be going through the minds of the NHC meteorologists. They must all be suffering from violent migraines and stomach upset...

This storm is a perfect nightmare scenario of a climate-induced warm SST future.

If Jamaica wasn’t there and it was making landfall in Cuba instead, I think Melissa would beat both Wilma and Allen for intensity and wind speed.
