The Caribbean country has been struggling with blackouts while recovering from another hurricane two weeks ago that killed at least six people in the eastern part of the island.

Hurricane Rafael is passing through the Cayman Islands in the Caribbean and is forecast to rapidly intensify before making landfall in western Cuba, according to the U.S. National Hurricane Center. Rafael was blowing maximum sustained winds of 80 mph (130 kph) after skirting past western Jamaica around mid-day.
