as Oscar Slams Cuba, No academy award for Eyeing growing Hurricane Threat

Hurricane Oscar recently struck Cuba with winds reaching ninety miles per hour, causing widespread disruption in a country already grappling with power shortages. The hurricane, which formed near the Bahamas, serves as a stark reminder that, with five weeks remaining, the extended Atlantic hurricane season is far from over. Warmer-than-usual Gulf waters, reaching record temperatures of 86 degrees, are fueling the rapid intensification of these storms, a situation that is especially concerning as some waters near Florida are exceeding one hundred degrees.
