A storm is moving at a speed of 4 kilometers, but scientists are in tension. Alert has been issued in many countries. Because it is expected to reach the speed of dangerous Hurricane 5.
At present the storm is moving very slowly in the sea of Jamaica.By now you must have heard that the greater the speed of the storm, the greater the devastation. But now a storm has arrived in the Caribbean Sea which is neither running nor in a hurry, just creeping slowly. The speed of Tropical Storm Melissa is only 4 kilometers per hour. But this slowness is making it dangerous. Because it can submerge many countries. Because of this many countries are on alert. Even scientists are surprised to see its movements. According to him, due to its slow speed this storm is drinking hot sea water. Due to this, it will become very heavy and in the next few days its speed will become of Hurricane 4 or 5 category. That means the speed can be around 150 to 251. Scientists are calling it a ‘triple threat’ because there may be heavy rain. It is difficult to predict how stormy winds will blow and how much devastation will occur.
Why is its slowness so scary?

Landslides have occurred in Port of Prince. There is a situation of flash flood in many places. Big stones are already falling in the hilly areas. If the speed of the storm reaches Hurricane 5, it is expected that there will be a lot of damage. Lakhs of people will be on the streets. Thousands of houses may be destroyed. Many countries including Eastern Cuba, Southern Bahamas are in danger.
If category 5 becomes
Scientists think that if Category 5 is formed, there will be more devastation than Gilbert of 1988. Thousands of houses will be blown away. Electric poles will be cleaned. Power cuts are certain to last for weeks. Roads and infrastructure will be ruined. Hurricane warning alert has been given in many countries including Jamaica. Airports have been closed. More than 650 shelters have been prepared so that people can be evacuated from the coastal area.
