Oscar hits Cuba as one of the smallest hurricanes on record

Hurricane Oscar made landfall in northeastern Cuba on Saturday evening as a tiny but mighty storm. Cuba, which continues to deal with the fallout from a power crisis this week, will see strong winds and flooding rains over the next 24 hours as the storm traverses the island’s rugged terrain. Oscar unexpectedly and rapidly intensified into a hurricane on Saturday as it moved through the southwestern Atlantic Ocean. The storm formed as one of the smallest hurricanes ever recorded in terms of its wind field, according to data collected by the U.S. National Hurricane Center (NHC).
