Tropical Storm Isaac drenched Haiti last night:
Heavy winds and rains flattened Haiti's tent cities - where 350,000 Haitians have been living, since 2010's devastating earthquake.
1 Haitian has been killed.
However, in Jamaica, we've felt minimal effects of the storm..the sky is overcast, but we've had little breeze and rain since last night into this afternoon.
At 11:00 am EDT time, Isaac was located at the southeast tip of Cuba and is expected to move over North Western parts of Cuba for the remaining portion of today into tomorrow evening.
It's strength has lessened to 60 mph and it is moving north-westerly direction at 17 mph.
On Sunday evening, Isaac is expected to strengthen as it passes over the Gulf of Mexico, when it is expected to hit the Florida Keys and South Florida.
Florida is currently on hurricane watch.
