Hurricane Rafael's Landfall in Cuba Leads to Second Nationwide Power Outage
ai generated text
Hurricane Rafael made landfall in Cuba on November 6 as a Category 3 hurricane, with maximum sustained winds of 115 mph. The storm was located 40-45 miles southwest of Havana and knocked out power and dumped rain on the Cayman Islands and Jamaica the day before landfall.
Canadian consular officials stand ready to provide consular assistance to Canadian citizens if needed.
Strong winds caused by the powerful Hurricane Rafael have caused the disconnection of the national electrical system. Contingency protocols have been applied.
As we have always done since the Revolution, we will overcome this situation.
Measures have been taken in each place to protect our people and material resources.
If future model runs continue to show this trend… additional leftward adjustment to the NHC track may be required.
Preparations to protect life and property should be rushed to completion.
