Tropical Storm Rafael Intensifies, Threatens Cuba
Tropical Storm Rafael is intensifying in the Caribbean, with forecasts indicating it will become a hurricane near the Cayman Islands before making landfall in Cuba on Wednesday. The storm's maximum sustained winds are currently near 60 mph, and it is expected to bring damaging hurricane-force winds, dangerous storm surges, and heavy rainfall across Jamaica, the Cayman Islands, and parts of Cuba. After impacting Cuba, Rafael is predicted to move into the Gulf of Mexico, where it may weaken due to cooler waters and wind shear, potentially affecting the U.S. Gulf Coast this weekend. Florida, particularly the Keys, might experience strong winds and minor storm surges, while the overall impact on the state is expected to be limited. Forecasters warn of potential flash flooding and mudslides in higher terrain areas of Jamaica and Cuba. Residents along the Gulf Coast are advised to stay informed as the storm's exact path and impact remain uncertain.
