Two Louisiana newlyweds, who traveled to Jamaica for their honeymoon, are now trapped on the island's north shore as Hurricane Melissa currently makes landfall.

High school sweethearts Stone Town, 21, and Lexi Perkins, 20, were married at a barn in Clinton on Saturday, Oct. 18.

Less than a week later, after days spent meeting locals and enjoying Jamaica's beaches, the couple was calling family from their room at their resort and trying to get a flight off the island.

"They told us the airports are in distress, there's no way for the planes to land or to fly out," Town said, speaking over a shaky phone connection just before noon Tuesday.

At the same time, Hurricane Melissa was making landfall on Jamaica's southern coast.

Hurricane Melissa is a category-5 hurricane, according to CNN
