AP reports that Paloma is now an extremely dangerous Category 4 hurricane poised to strike hurricane-ravaged Cuba as a major storm. It's expected to make landfall in Cuba late Saturday or early Sunday with maximum sustained winds of at least 111 mph (178 kph).

God help Cuba, more here, and in español here.

It looks like it's going to hit the same area that was ravaged by Ike 2 months ago. Awful. Let's hope it weakens before hitting.
