The name Melissa has been used for five tropical cyclones worldwide: four in the Atlantic Ocean and one in the Western Pacific Ocean.
In the Atlantic, where it replaced Michelle after the 2001 season:
- Tropical Storm Melissa (2007) – short-lived storm west of Cape Verde, never threatened land
- Tropical Storm Melissa (2013) – short-lived storm in the central Atlantic, never threatened land
- Tropical Storm Melissa (2019) – short-lived storm that formed in the central Atlantic
- Hurricane Melissa (2025) – long-lived and extremely powerful Category 5 hurricane that made a catastrophic landfall in Jamaica near peak intensity, and again in Cuba at Category 3 strength; tied as strongest Atlantic hurricane by sustained winds.
In the Western Pacific:
- Typhoon Melissa (1994) (T9424, 26W) – remained over open waters
