Havana, Sept 23 (ACN) Authorities in the Special Municipality of Isle of Youth, south of Cuba’s mainland, are taking urgent action to safeguard human lives and economic property in the face of imminent torrential rains linked to a wide low- pressure area moving near the south-western portion of Cuba.
The local weather center alerted the population that the low pressure area could develop into a tropical storm over the next few days, as it moves Northwest on the western Caribbean Sea the southeastern Gulf of Mexico.
Navigation conditions are expected to deteriorate over the next few hours with strong winds from the South which could lead to rising sea levels in the Batabano Gulf, south of Havana; this poses a risk of coastal flooding.
