Eta Makes Landfall in Cuba

VOA News

   The U.S. National Hurricane Center said early Sunday that Tropical
   Storm Eta has made landfall along the South-Central coast of Cuba and
   is moving to the north, across the island.

   The meteorologists forecast Eta, moving with maximum sustained winds of
   100 kilometer per hour, will produce "dangerous storm surge, flash
   floods and strong winds over portions of Cuba and Florida."

   Early Sunday Eta was 450 kilometers south-southeast of Miami, Florida.

   There is a storm surge watch, as well as a hurricane watch, for
   portions of Florida's coast and Keys, including Florida Bay.
