Tropical Update: Ike Does Cuba

Overnight, Ike has been grinding away at Cuba, at first as a Category 4 Hurricane , and now down to a Category 2 Hurricane as it spins to the west at 14 mph, and ponders where to go once in open water again.

As always...refer to the National Hurricane Center for up-to-date and official information.
