Violent shaking was recorded on a live camera in Kingston, Jamaica, on Tuesday morning as tropical-storm-force wind gusts howled through the streets of the island nation's capital ahead of the catastrophic landfall of Category 5 Hurricane Melissa.

Matthew Cappucci, a meteorologist for The Washington Post’s Capital Weather Gang, was caught on camera vomiting while flying through the eye of Hurricane Melissa. Cappucci was interviewed by CNN’s Erin Burnett on Monday and shared the gross footage — but Burnett pointed out that he had a good reason for allowing CNN to air it.

In the videos taken on Monday, Oct. 27, huge clusters of clouds swirl around the hurricane's "eye." At times, the clouds show bright white.
