Melissa is forecast to make landfall on the island of Jamaica Tuesday, with up to 30 inches of rain and a life-threatening storm surge. Category 5 is the highest on the Saffir-Simpson scale.

Hurricane Melissa strengthened into a Category 4 storm on Sunday, unleashing torrential rain and threatening to bring catastrophic flooding to the northern Caribbean.

Plus, stray dogs become a focal point in India’s capital, and an Aaron Rodgers reunion on “Sunday Night Football.”

The intensity of a hurricane is measured by its maximum sustained wind speed, and when that speed increases by at least 35 miles per hour in a 24-hour period — or roughly two categories on the Saffir-Simpson Hurricane Scale — meteorologists call that “rapid intensification.”

Jamaica and other countries impacted by Hurricane Melissa will be getting help from organizations right here in South Florida.
