Rescuers and aid workers fanned out across Jamaica on Saturday to distribute food and water to communities that remained isolated after the hurricane, with essential relief supplies now arriving in St. Elizabeth and Westmoreland. Many areas were still cut off by fallen concrete posts and trees strewn across roads, forcing people to collect water from rivers in buckets. The Social Security Minister, Pearnel Charles Jr., joined the relief convoy, underscoring the urgency of the aid effort.
