Elsa devastates Caribbean islands as Florida braces for impact
Fox News
Hurricane Elsa fell back to tropical storm force as it brushed past Haiti and the Dominican Republic on Saturday and threatened to unleash flooding and landslides before taking aim at Cuba and Florida.
The long-term forecast track showed it heading toward Florida as a tropical storm by Tuesday morning, but some models would carry it into the Gulf or up the Atlantic Coast. In Haiti, authorities used social media to alert people about the storm and urged them to evacuate if they lived near water or mountain flanks. "The whole country is threatened," the Civil Protection Agency said in a statement. "Make every effort to escape before it’s too late."More Related News
