Tropical Storm Oscar made landfall in eastern Cuba on Sunday evening after the island was already grappling with a widespread power outage due to the failure of its largest power plant. The storm, which initially struck as a Category 1 hurricane, brought winds of up to 75 mph and is expected to deliver significant rainfall, potentially leading to flooding in low-lying areas. The Cuban government anticipates restoring power to most of the country by Monday evening, though many residents have been without electricity for three days. As Oscar moves west-southwest, it is forecasted to weaken further while approaching the central Bahamas. Residents have reported damage to buildings and high waves along the coast, exacerbating the ongoing crisis in Cuba, which is also facing severe shortages of essential supplies. The storm's unexpected intensification caught forecasters off guard, highlighting the challenges posed by the current environmental conditions.
