What is the expected path of Hurricane Melissa over the coming days?

Arab Weather - Hurricane Melissa struck Jamaica on Tuesday, October 28, 2025, as a Category 5 hurricane, making it one of the strongest hurricanes to hit the region this year. The hurricane caused:

• Strong winds blew, some of which uprooted trees and caused power outages in several areas.
• Raging and violent waves, several meters high, along the coast.
• Heavy rainfall caused widespread flooding.

Satellite images from the Arab Weather app showed that the hurricane continued its path toward southern Cuba, where it weakened to a Category 3 storm with wind speeds of 193 km/h. The hurricane continues to bring heavy rain and localized flooding to low-lying areas of southern Cuba, along with persistent strong winds.

Predictions for the coming days

The hurricane is expected to take a northerly path towards the waters of the Atlantic Ocean, moving out of the tropical zone and encountering much colder waters, which will cause it to gradually lose its tropical characteristics and transform into an extratropical storm that interacts with cold air masses coming from the North Atlantic during the first days of November.

And God knows best.
