Ernesto earns his name
TD 5 has now become Ernesto. This storm could definitely impact Jamaica, the Caymans and perhaps Cuba. More from Reuters:
The 2006 Atlantic hurricane season's fifth named storm, Ernesto, formed late on Friday in the eastern Caribbean Sea, the U.S. National Hurricane Center said in its latest storm update.
The storm was forecast to reach the Gulf of Mexico early on Wednesday and could threaten oil and gas production that has not yet fully recovered from last year's hurricanes.
