CUBA – Rafael gained strength as it churned north towards western Cuba overnight, intensifying into a hurricane.

It strengthened into a hurricane overnight as it lashed the Cayman Islands, causing widespread power outages and flooding. Heavy rains had earlier hit parts of Jamaica.

Cuba’s government was evacuating residents from low-lying areas, particularly on the island’s south coast, where officials warned of heavy rains, wind and a life-threatening storm surge.

Authorities closed airports and schools ahead of the storm and shut down public transportation.
