JAMAICA —

As Hurricane Melissa approaches Jamaica, a woman from Duquesne, Allegheny County, is staying at the Hotel Riu Montego Bay.

Antoinette Margita described her experience on Tuesday morning, saying she's "a little tired and scared." Advertisement

Margita said she was hearing "a lot of rain and wind" and described the wind as being "so hard that it sounds like the door is going to open."

She said the hotel advised guests to put items against the windows and provided food and water in a care package.

Margita also said she was supposed to leave Jamaica on Tuesday, but her flight was canceled.

She said she found a flight to leave Jamaica on Wednesday and hopes she'll be able to do so, depending on the status of the airports.
