The normal soundtrack that accompanies Jamaican life is silent this morning as many have woken to no electricity.
About three-quarters of the island is without power and many parts of its western side are under water, with homes destroyed by strong winds after Hurricane Melissa tore across the island with catastrophic force.
As wind and rain lashed through the night, one local official said the destruction resembled "the scene of an apocalypse movie."
With communications crippled, the true scale of the disaster remains unknown. Prime Minister Andrew Holness declared the island a "disaster area" late Tuesday, warning of "devastating impacts" and "significant damage" to hospitals, homes and businesses.
Although no deaths have yet been confirmed, Montego Bay's mayor Richard Vernon told the BBC his first task at daybreak would be "to check if everybody is alive."
Hurricane Melissa, the strongest storm to strike Jamaica in modern history, barrelled across the country on Tuesday, leaving behind a trail of ruin.
At its peak, the hurricane sustained winds of 298 km/h (185 mph) – stronger than Hurricane Katrina, which devastated New Orleans in 2005 and killed 1,392 people.
"It resembled the scene of an apocalypse movie", an MP in western Jamaica told Kingston-based journalist Kimone Francis of The Jamaica Gleaner.
Francis described the night as "stressful" and "intense", marked by relentless heavy wind and rain.
"You don't have a connection. You can't speak to the people you normally speak to," she told the BBC World Service's Newsday programme.
Across Jamaica's central parishes, Francis said, floodwaters rose to the roofs of two-storey homes.
One anonymous woman told the BBC: "There is water coming in through the roof of my house. I am not okay."
While no fatalities had been confirmed, Jamaica's prime minister told CNN he feared "there would be some loss of life." Damage, he said, was widespread – hitting hospitals, schools, homes and businesses.
Local government minister Desmond Mckenzie said on Tuesday afternoon that the southwestern parish of St Elizabeth was "under water", with at least three families trapped in their homes in the community of Black River.
"Rescue teams are struggling to reach them because of the dangerous conditions", he said at a news conference.
Verna Genus was sheltering from the storm at her four bedroom home in the village of Carlisle, St Elizabeth, when the hurricane ripped the zinc roof off her house.
The 73-year-old vegetable farmer was in the house with her sons and baby grandchild when the hurricane made landfall over the area.
Verna has lost communications due to the power lines being down. But her UK-based sister, June Powell, spoke to the BBC about what happened.
"She was crying on the phone," June said, adding: "You are huddled up inside and then you look up then the roof is gone. I have never heard her like that – she was wailing 'we are all finished.'"
She is anxiously waiting for the communications networks to be restored so she can talk to her sister.
St Elizabeth, known as Jamaica's breadbasket, produces much of the island's produce. With crops submerged and fields destroyed, many farmers will struggle to financially recover.
On the north coast, Montego Bay – the heart of Jamaica's tourism industry and home to its main airport – will also take time to get back on its feet. This hurricane has put a hand around the neck of the Jamaican economy.
Montego city was split in two by floodwaters, Mayor Vernon said. He told BBC Breakfast: "Once the wind subsided, we started to get a lot of heavy rain and that has led to massive floods right across the city. One side of the city is now cut off from the other due to roads being inundated by flood water."
His immediate concern, he added, was simple: "Check if everybody is alive."
In rural Jamaica, the storm has left people shaken. Tamisha Lee, president of the Jamaica Network of Rural Women Producers, said: "Right now, what I'm seeing is heavy rain, powerful wind, a lot of things flying all over the place, and trees uprooted. There is no electricity. I am feeling anxious and tense. The damage will be enormous."
Meteorologists said Hurricane Melissa intensified at a speed rarely seen, its rapid strengthening fuelled by abnormally warm Caribbean waters – part of a broader trend linked to climate change.
By the time it struck Jamaica, the storm had reached Category 5 strength, with gusts fierce enough to tear roofs from concrete homes, uproot trees and snap power poles.
Health officials even issued a crocodile warning, cautioning that floodwaters could drive the reptiles into residential areas.
For thousands of tourists caught on the island, the storm brought terror and uncertainty.
"I've never heard anything like it," said Pia Chevallier from Cambridge, who travelled to Jamaica with her 15-year-old son on Saturday.
Speaking to BBC Radio 5 Live from her darkened hotel room, she said: "The glass in the windows and patio doors was all vibrating. The doors sounded like they were slamming, even though they were closed. It was horrendous."
She added: "There's debris everywhere – palm trees, coconuts, branches, all over the place. The big palm trees with all the roots are up. That's how strong the winds have been."
On the north coast, Wayne Gibson, a British tourist from Kent holidaying in Ocho Rios with his wife and two teenage daughters, told BBC Radio 4's Today programme that they were sheltering in a communal hall.
Kyle Holmes from Bolton, visiting Lucea in the north west, described the hotel as "a disaster zone" and said he had no idea when they will be able to get home.
Hurricane Melissa had moved on to make landfall in Cuba by early Wednesday morning, leaving Jamaica paralysed and silent. Though it has since weakened to a Category 3 hurricane, it remains powerful with wind speeds of over 200km/h (124mph).
Jamaica has a catastrophe bond – a type of insurance for the country – which will hopefully allow people to get back on their feet, but the issue is what's done in the interim.

Hurricane Melissa is the strongest storm to hit the Caribbean nation in modern history.
Hours after the storm passed Jamaica, causing a massive power outage, authorities urged residents to continue sheltering.
"I am trying to use my own manpower to stop the wind blowing in the door," a frightened mother tells the BBC.
The powerful storm is set to be the world's strongest of the year.
Kyle Holmes, from Bolton, was forced to take shelter with his family as the storm made landfall.

XRP flashes TD Sell 9 after 14% rally, with resistance at $2.75 and mixed RSI-MACD signals suggesting a potential pullback.
 
XRP has posted a sharp recovery in recent weeks, bouncing over 14% from October lows near $2.30 to highs above $2.65. 
However, a key technical signal known for marking reversal points the TD Sequential Sell 9 has now appeared again on the daily chart. Historically, this signal has preceded notable pullbacks, and traders are watching closely.
The TD Sequential indicator, developed to identify trend exhaustion, has issued a Sell 9 on the daily timeframe for XRP/USDT. 
Past signals of this kind have often aligned with local tops and short-term pullbacks. For instance, in early October, a Sell 9 was followed by a 12.89% drop from around $3.10.
The TD Sequential has been remarkably accurate at spotting $XRP trend reversals over the past three months.
It now flashes a sell signal! pic.twitter.com/rZqKU12cAF

Earlier signals have also proven effective. A Sell 9 near $3.60 in July preceded a 23.90% decline. In late August, a Sell 13 was followed by another 17.75% drop, further reinforcing the reliability of this tool during the recent bearish cycle.
Now, with a new Sell 9 appearing after a strong rebound, traders are watching closely. The level around $2.70 is being viewed as a key resistance, and a failure to break higher could confirm another pullback.
On the 4-hour chart, XRP’s Relative Strength Index (RSI) is currently at 61.56, indicating bullish momentum. However, it recently dropped from near-overbought levels, suggesting a possible cool-off. RSI remains above 50, which still supports a short-term bullish trend, but caution is rising.
Meanwhile, the MACD (Moving Average Convergence Divergence) shows the MACD line slightly below the signal line.
The histogram is negative at -0.00766, which reflects a weakening bullish move. Although not strongly bearish yet, this crossover suggests momentum is slowing.
There is also a mild bearish divergence between price and MACD, with price making higher highs while MACD fails to follow. This pattern can signal upcoming consolidation or minor corrections, especially if key support levels are broken.
XRP has formed higher lows since the mid-October bounce, building a short-term bullish trend. The price recently moved above $2.60 and is consolidating below resistance at $2.70. A break above $2.75 could open the door toward $3.00, where stronger resistance awaits.
However, if XRP fails to hold $2.60, a drop to $2.50 or even $2.36 is possible. These are levels where buying previously returned, offering potential support zones. A move below $2.36 would challenge the bullish structure built over the past two weeks.
Traders are watching both momentum indicators and key levels for the next move. With the TD Sequential Sell 9 printed, short-term caution is rising, and many expect increased volatility if price fails to push through resistance.

Maryland State Sen. Steve Hershey is urging Gov. Wes Moore to suspend state lottery sales if Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program benefits are disrupted due to the federal government shutdown.
Hershey highlighted that data consistently shows the greatest number of families receiving SNAP benefits reside in neighborhoods with the highest per capita Maryland Lottery sales, which also have the highest poverty rates in the state.
“Disproportionate in effect of those with less income that are actually playing the lottery, and yet again, because the government is selling down hope. They’re selling them a chance,” Hershey said. “You spent $2, maybe you’ll win $20.”
He described the Maryland Lottery as a voluntary tax and a state run chance of hope that should not benefit from those most impacted by a potential disruption in SNAP benefits.
“Keep in mind, over $2 billion a year on lottery sales, almost $3 billion now in lottery sales, of which about 25% of it is pure profit,” Hershey said.
SNAP benefits are expected to run out starting Saturday if Congress does not reach a deal to end the shutdown.

Pi Network price prediction depends on mainnet rollout, exchange listings, and user growth, with mixed community views on utility, supply, and timeline.
Pi’s price trajectory hinges on balancing supply shocks from unlocks with real adoption of its new AI tools and staking mechanisms — key drivers influencing the current pi price prediction. While technicals lean bearish near-term, a breakout above $0.59 (38.2% Fibonacci) could signal momentum reversal. Will Pi’s ecosystem upgrades outpace its token supply glut by Q3 2025?

We’re looking into the violence that erupted yesterday in Rio de Janeiro, in which at least 64 people have been reportedly killed following a massive police anti-gang raid targeting the Comando Vermelho (Red Command) group – one of Brazil's biggest crime and drug gangs.
Violent scenes are reported to have broken out in the north of the city – and the region’s governor has said four of the dead are police officers. In one video posted by the Rio government, there’s a video of a drone which they claimed was used by criminals to attack police officers, external in the Penha area of the city.
A reverse image search of the clip shows it was only posted online yesterday, but there are not enough details in the video that would allow us to identify its precise location.
Comando Vermelho is one of Brazil’s oldest criminal groups. They moved into the cocaine trade in the 1980s and while they originated in Rio, they have since grown into a major transnational drug trafficking organisation.
Earlier this year, I spoke to an indigenous leader from Peru who told me that the group were known to operate in the Ucayali region of the Peruvian Amazon as well.
Just last week, a report was released by Amazon Underworld claiming that the group had successfully entered areas of coca production on multiple parts of the Peruvian Amazon, as well as also operating in large swathes of the Brazilian Amazon too.

Good morning from BBC Verify Live.
We’re looking into videos showing smoke plumes over Rio de Janeiro, after at least 64 people were killed in clashes between Brazilian police and a notorious drug gang yesterday according to the region’s governor. More than 2,500 officers were involved in a massive police operation against the Red Command, who officials say responded with gunfire and drone-dropped munitions. We’ll be bringing you a profile of the major crime group shortly – and we’re speaking to experts about the drone claims.
Our team are also continuing to verify social media footage showing the aftermath of Hurricane Melissa damage in Jamaica, after the storm ravaged the island. The Caribbean island’s prime minister has declared a “disaster area” and warned of “devastating impacts”, footage of which is continuing to emerge on social media. The hurricane has now moved onto Cuba and will head north-east towards the Bahamas and Bermuda.
Plus, our fact-checkers are examining the UK government ministers claims this morning about deportations and migrant removals – and later tuning in to Prime Minister’s Questions in the House of Commons.

The current correction in the cryptocurrency market will be short-lived, according to the analyst known as Crypto Dan. He asserts that significant growth in altcoins typically occurs during periods of extreme market overheating—at the end of a bull phase.
The Correction Won’t Last Long
“The current crypto market appears to be in a relatively small correction phase, and a strong surge in altcoins is likely to occur alongside intense overheating at the end of the cycle.” – By @DanCoinInvestor pic.twitter.com/0Asr6rLcWd
— CryptoQuant.com (@cryptoquant_com) October 28, 2025

The expert noted that capital inflow and trading activity help identify the concluding phase of the cycle. For instance, the massive liquidity in the market in the first quarter of 2021 signaled its imminent end.
According to Crypto Dan’s observations, in March 2024, the capital inflow was weaker than in 2021. The current level of market overheating is also lower than in previous instances. 
The cryptocurrency market is experiencing a moderate correction. A noticeable rise in altcoins may coincide with intense overheating at the end of the cycle, the expert concluded.
Data from Glassnode shows that the distribution of Bitcoin purchase costs by investors has formed support around $111,000 and significant supply around $117,000.

This range defines the standoff between recent buyers and traders taking profits. A breakout in one direction could set the course for the next major price movement.
Funding rates on Binance have turned positive again, which may indicate the start of a new upward trend for Bitcoin. This was highlighted by CryptoQuant analyst Burak Kesmeci.

Analysis of data over the past six months has revealed two clear patterns:
“Funding rates on Binance act as a leading indicator of short-term trend reversals,” concluded Kesmeci.
The analyst noted that since October 22, 2025, the metric has remained in positive territory. In his view, this indicates renewed support for Bitcoin’s growth in both spot and derivatives markets. This could suggest the formation of a foundation for the asset’s next rally.
Analysts at Swissblock have recorded an increase in the accumulation of digital gold among large holders. In September-October, there was an outflow of coins from centralized exchanges to their wallets.
Whales are reloading.
Accumulation has increased during September–October, with BTC flowing from exchanges into whale wallets.
They’re accumulating into strength, positioning strategically ahead of the next potential leg higher.https://t.co/Xv9NhjexTT pic.twitter.com/Khl58n4t1M
— Swissblock (@swissblock__) October 28, 2025

Experts believe that large players are strategically positioning themselves in anticipation of the next growth phase.
Short-term holders (STH) have also joined the accumulation, increasing their investments in the leading cryptocurrency. Meanwhile, long-term investors (LTH) continue to distribute assets by selling coins.
Swissblock described the situation as a rotation of capital. Funds are flowing from LTH to whales and short-term holders.
CryptoQuant experts added that the Bitcoin price has exceeded the realized price of “new whales” at $112,788.

This group of investors, holding about 1.14 million BTC, no longer bears unrealized losses. Analysts consider this an important psychological shift for the market.
Back in October, Swissblock specialists stated that digital gold needs to maintain the support level of $114,000 to continue the rally to new highs.
