Hurricane Paula weakened into a tropical Storm on Wednesday, it had strong winds and rainfalls, but didn't create serve damage. Cuban were excepting the worse, but hoping for the better; and it was better. Many low lying street have turned into shallow rivers and some dirt roads are muddy roads, but nothing they can't handle. Cubans have hurricanes frequently and know what to do to try to prevent server damage the best they can, so they're not vulnerable. Once the sea turned violet some power turned off while others where already turn off in preparation. Most Cubans had there roofs and other objects tied down for the wind couldn't destroy it. In 2008 Cuba was hit by three hurricanes in a row around this time of the year that hurt their economy, which they are still attempting to rebuild; In the beginning, many were wondering if this was going to be a repeat of that and now that it's almost over Cubans can stop worrying and start planting their tobacco fields.
