00:00Get the f*** off this time. Where this time then?

00:03Jamaica no problem, not for influencer Hannah Grubbs.

00:07The wannabe social media star is under fire for flying to the Caribbean country

00:11as the island braced for a devastating hurricane.

00:15It's expected to be the strongest storm to ever last Jamaica.

00:18Hurricane Melissa out here messing with my vacation,

00:21Hannah whined from her hotel balcony in Negral,

00:24and TikTokers fired back.

00:26Pretty freaking tone-deaf video.

00:27People are legitimately about to die.

00:30Pretty insensitive to the locals that do not have much,

00:33have no way to evacuate,

00:35and a lot of them are probably about to lose everything.

00:37It all started with this video of Hannah and a friend strutting through the airport,

00:41fully aware of the dangerous situation ahead.

00:44When they arrived at their resort,

00:46she was handed tricolored cocktails and gloated,

00:49pretending there's not a Category 5 hurricane hitting Jamaica.

00:53Hannah apparently thought she could ride out the storm,

00:55all with a drink in hand.

00:57Not so fast.

00:58Days into the ill-advised trip, things took a scary turn.

01:02Hannah posted a weather map on her Instagram stories,

01:05saying she's now stuck on the island.

01:07And on Monday, October 27th,

01:09she shared that she and the other hotel guests

01:11were told to hunker down in their rooms for potentially days,

01:15and asked for prayers.

01:16So, definitely just asking prayers for Jamaica,

01:19for the whole island.

01:20Sustained winds of up to 175 miles per hour had already been recorded,

01:25and a life-threatening storm surge of up to 13 feet was expected across southern Jamaica.

01:31The historic storm has already been blamed for seven deaths in the Caribbean,

01:35including at least three in Jamaica.

01:36This video from Old Harbor Bay shows a capsized boat drifting close to shore.

01:42Tropical cyclone specialist Anne-Claire Fonten from the World Meteorological Organization

01:47called it the storm of the century for Jamaica.

01:50Prime Minister Andrew Holness has already ordered mandatory evacuations for parts of southern Jamaica.

01:56He warned that the government had done all it could to prepare for the potential devastation,

02:01saying,

02:01there is no infrastructure in the region that can withstand a Category 5.
