Grand Cayman Island
By Jay Ehrhart
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
GEORGE TOWN, Cayman
Islands — Hurricane Ivan bat
tered the Cayman Islands with
ferocious 150-mph winds Sun
day, flooding homes, ripping off
roofs and toppling trees three
stories tall as its powerful eye
thundered past just offshore.
Ivan has killed at least 60
people across the Caribbean
and was expected to strike west
ern Cuba, where residents have
dubbed the storm “Ivan the Ter
rible,” on Monday. More than 1
million Cubans were evacuated
from their homes.
The storm also could brush the
Florida Keys and parts of Flori
da’s Gulf Coast. Mexico issued
a hurricane watch and tropical
storm warning for the northeast
ern Yucatan Peninsula.
The hurricane, which grew to
the most powerful Category 5
with 165 mph winds Saturday,
lost some strength before tearing
into the wealthy Cayman Islands
chain, a popular scuba diving
destination and banking center.
“It’s as bad as it can possibly
get,” Justin Uzzell, 35, said by
telephone from his fifth-floor
refuge in Grand Cayman. “It’s
a horizontal blizzard. The air is
just foam.”
High winds prevented offi
cials from assessing damage im
mediately. But Donnie Ebanks,
deputy chairman of the British
territory’s National Hurricane
Committee, estimated that as
many as half of Grand Cayman’s
15,000 homes were damaged.
At 5 p.m. EDT, Ivan’s eye
was about 225 miles southeast of
Cuba’s western tip. Hurricane-
force winds extended 90 miles
and tropical storm-force winds
extended 175 miles. Ivan was
moving west-northwest at near
10 mph and was expected to turn
northwest by Monday.
It was projected to pass near
or over Cuba’s western end by
Monday afternoon or evening.
The U.S. National Hurricane
Center in Miami said the storm
surge could reach 25 feet with
dangerous, battering waves.
The Cayman Islands were
better prepared for the punish
ment than Grenada and Jamaica,
which were slammed by Ivan in
the past week — though Jamaica
was spared a direct hit Saturday.
The Caymans have strict build
ing codes and none of the shan
tytowns and tin shacks common
elsewhere in the Caribbean.
The Hurricane Center said
ham radio operators on Grand
Cayman reported that people
were standing on the roofs of
homes because of storm surg
es of up to eight feet above
normal tide levels.
While it was nearly a direct
hit on Grand Cayman, the eye
of the storm did not make land
fall. passing instead over^
just south of the island, saidi
fad Mojica, a Hurricane Gel
meteorologist.
Still, emergency official#
residents from all parts of|
island were reporting
off roofs and flooded homi
Ivan’s shrieking winds and
ing rain approached Grand
man, the largest of three isl
that comprise the British
lory of 45,000 people.
The government said Gl
Cayman was “experiencing!
most severe portion ofllumf
Ivan” on Sunday morning.: I
“We know there is $
age and it is severe,” saidf
Emanuel of the Government
formation Service.
The airport runway I
flooded and trees 1
wrenched from their rf
including a giant Cayman*
hogany next to the govern^
headquarters in downtl
George Town. Radio Ca
went off the air tempon
before resuming broaden:
Though there were no iiC
diate reports of injuries
Caymans, the death tol
where rose as hospital o
in Jamaica reported four
deaths, for a total of 15. Ad
34 people were killed in
nada, where the hurricane
widespread destruction,
tcred deaths occurred on
islands and in Venezuela.
