Cuba is set to feel the impact on Sunday and Monday. The island’s provinces of Camaguey, Granma, Guantanamo, Holguin, Las Tunas, and Santiago de Cuba were under a hurricane watch.
Even if the hurricane tilts westward on Monday and Tuesday, there remained a high possibility of thunderstorms in Miami-Dade and Broward counties.
