                       Hurricane Gonzalo Pummels Bermuda

   by VOA News

   Forecasters are warning residents of Bermuda to look out for more
   life-threatening weather as the eye of Hurricane Gonzalo passes over
   the Atlantic islands.

   The eye is usually the calm part of the storm in the center. But
   authorities are cautioning people not to venture out, saying dangerous
   waves and wind will return.

   Gonzalo approached Bermuda as a huge Category 4 storm, but weakened to
   a still powerful Category 2 as it struck the island with top winds of
   175 kilometers per hour.

   The storm is predicted to weaken further as it moves out to sea.

   No deaths or injuries are reported from Bermuda so far, but Gonzalo
   killed one person on St. Maarten earlier this week.
