Tropical Storm Isaac makes landfall in Haiti

Survivors of the 2010 earthquake still in makeshift camps are particularly vulnerable

Continue reading the main story

Gale-force winds and driving rain are lashing the coast of Haiti after Tropical Storm Isaac made landfall.

The US National Hurricane Centre says the heavy rainfall is a "major threat" and may cause floods and mudslides.

Aid groups warn that some 400,000 Haitians still living in makeshift camps after the deadly earthquake of 2010 are extremely vulnerable.

Storm warnings are also in place for neighbouring Dominican Republic, as well as Cuba and parts of Florida.

The United States National Hurricane Centre (NHC) predicts that the storm will move near or over Cuba later on Saturday and approach the Florida Keys on Sunday.

It said Isaac had displayed "some increase in forward speed" as it ripped across Haiti.

The storm could pose a potential threat to Florida during the US Republican National Convention.

The Corporate media are ecstatic that ISAAC is now projected to pass west of Tampa and not interfere with the GOP convention. Left unsaid; the new track aims the storm at Louisiana, the still-recovering-from-Katrina New Orleans, and that sink hole near the salt cavern full of radioactive waste!

   Westward-moving Isaac a little stronger

   Tropical Storm Isaac has strengthened a bit, according to reports from a hurricane hunter aircraft. Computer models show the storm bypassing the Tampa Bay area, but we remain in the cone of uncertainty.
