Cuba ont l'habitude avec les ouragans et je pars tranquille car ils ne prennent aucune chance. Partez en paix.

Jamaica,
Cuba, the
Bahamas,
Haiti, the
Dominican Republic, and the eastern seaboard of the United
States, reaching to the area south of the Great Lakes Region of the United
States, and Eastern
Canada.

Hurricane Sandy damage in Guantanamo Bay
Hurricane Sandy strengthened into a Category 2 hurricane before hitting
Cuba.[22] At least 55,000 people had been evacuated principally because of expected flooding from rains that could total up to 20 inches (500 mm) in some places and a storm surge the Cuban weather service said was already beginning along the southeastern coast around midnight EDT.[167] Sandy made landfall just west of
Santiago de Cuba, the country's second-largest city, as a strong Category 2 hurricane, with the strong eastern eyewall passing directly over the city.[168][169] The eye of the storm came ashore just west of the city with waves up to 29 feet (9 meters) and a six-foot (2 meter) storm surge that caused extensive coastal flooding.[170]
Reports from the area after the passage of Sandy spoke of widespread damage, particularly to
Santiago de Cuba. Electricity and water services had been knocked out, and most of the trees in the city had either been ripped off their roots or had lost all their leaves. A local TV reporter told Cuban state television that many of the city's 300,000 homes were reportedly in bad shape before the storm and were left vulnerable to high winds and heavy rain. Several Cuban provinces promised to send brigades to help
Santiago recover, although officials gave a long list of other towns that suffered devastation. Guantánamo followed a similar fate to
Santiago, with television showing telephone poles and cables down across the city. Several historic buildings in the center of town were reportedly damaged. State media has said at least 11 people in
Cuba were killed as a result of the storm, and Raúl Castro planned to visit
Santiago de Cuba in the coming days. Nine of the deaths were in
Santiago de Cuba Province and two were in Guantánamo Province and most of the victims were trapped in destroyed houses.[171][172] This makes Sandy the deadliest hurricane to hit
Cuba since 2005, when Hurricane Dennis killed 16 people.[173]
Damage to the U.S. Guantanamo Bay Naval Base was not as severe, and there were no reports of injuries at the base. The highest sustained winds were below hurricane strength at 54 miles per hour (87 km/h), with a maximum gust of 66 miles per hour (106 km/h). The storm damaged roofs and windows in a few older buildings and tore some of the power cables within the facility. Several recreational boats broke off their moorings, but there was no damage to the prison, according to Navy Capt. Robert Durand.[174]

Cuba, leaving 16 people dead and $1.4 billion in damages as it roared through the island, flattening houses and downing trees and power lines. Heavy rainfall fell across the country, with amounts reaching up to 1092 mm/42.99 inches, making Dennis the wettest storm for the island since Hurricane Flora of 1963.[18] According to reports from the Cuban government, 120,000 homes were damaged, 15,000 of which were destroyed. The citrus and vegetable industries were also devastated as
Cuba's primary agricultural regions were the hardest hit. Nonetheless, Fidel Castro publicly refused US aid after the storm in protest of the ongoing US trade embargo against
Cuba, stating that, "If they offered $1 billion we would say no."[19] Relayed reports from Cuban meteorologists stated that a gust up to 149 mph (239 km/h) was detected at
Cienfuegos, 85% of the power lines were down, and extensive damage to the communications infrastructure had occurred. Dennis was more destructive than the previous year's Hurricane Charley and was widely regarded as the worst hurricane to strike
Cuba since Hurricane Flora in the 1963 season.
