## Caption

Montego Bay and surrounding areas in St James are beginning to count the cost after Hurricane Melissa’s fierce passage across Jamaica’s north coast. 🌪️

Early aerial footage shows widespread flooding, roof damage, and downed power lines — with many communities still without electricity or cell service. ⚠️

Recovery and assessment efforts are now underway as teams work to restore access and reconnect families. 💛💚🖤
