(VOR News) – Hurricane Oscar made landfall in the early hours of Sunday morning in the southeast region of the Bahamas. The hurricane tracked directly to this spot shortly after it came ashore.

The hurricane that was traveling that way had its goal of causing a significant loss of electricity in Cuba, and it had just done it. The island that was most vulnerable to danger in the area was Cuba.

The hurricane’s center made landfall on the island of Great Inagua, according to a warning released by the Miami-based National Center.

The hurricane center provides hurricane information.

The formation of an extremely dangerous storm surge is anticipated to transpire as a consequence of it. This storm surge has the potential to cause catastrophic coastal flooding not only in that area but also in other parts of the Southeastern Bahamas. The likelihood of obtaining precipitation from precipitation is between two and four inches, with some places possibly receiving as much as six inches.

Rainfall in eastern Cuba is expected to range from five to ten inches through Tuesday, with isolated areas perhaps receiving up to fifteen inches. This might indeed happen. This is a possibility that it will happen. The forecast will be used as the foundation for creating this prognosis.

Saturday saw the creation of Oscar off the coast of the Bahamas, encircling the Turks and Caicos islands to the south of the formation. This formation happened close to the Bahamas. Every one of these islands is located in the northern part of the formation.

This is unexpected, even though the National Hurricane Center had previously described the storm as “tiny.” The National Hurricane Center issued hurricane warnings for parts of the southeast Bahamas and Cuba on Sunday. Additionally, these cautions included Cuba.

While the storm’s sustained winds were estimated to reach speeds of up to 130 km/h (80 miles per hour), there were bursts of wind that were noticeably stronger.

Although they were consistently higher than the winds, the winds were still present. The most notable location of the organization was in the vicinity of Guantanamo, Cuba, which was located around 240 kilometers (150 miles) east-northeast of its heart.

Forecasters predicted a tropical storm to hit Guantanamo or Holguin, Cuba, on Sunday afternoon.

It was traveling westerly at a pace of 12 miles per hour (19 kilometers per hour) at the time this report was written. At the time of writing, this was the situation.

To put this into perspective, the biggest devastating blackout to hit Cuba in at least two years occurred last week, depriving millions of Cubans of electricity for two days.

Cuba is currently going through the process of getting over the terrible incident that happened. The hurricane is getting closer to Cuba even as this phrase is being typed. This reality is happening right now. The week prior, on Saturday, there was a partial restoration of the temporally stopped electricity service.

Philippe Papin of the National Hurricane Center was a little taken aback to learn that Oscar had strengthened into a hurricane on Saturday. He has to admit that the way Oscar turned into a hurricane surprised him. In his statement, Papin talked about Oscar’s appearance and said that it was a little unexpected.

And with regret, he said, “Unfortunately, the system managed to sneak up on us a little bit.” He felt quite let down. It was mentioned that he made this admission in his apology. In his message, Papin expressed his regret for the situation that had developed.

Only a few hours have passed since Tropical Storm Nadine started to form, and it is now situated off the coast of Mexico’s southern Caribbean. This event happened about the same time as it did. It finally transformed into a tropical depression as it moved across the terrain because it had crossed land.
