Not sure about acceleration.... but, based on the surface interaction, higher storms have less of their base at the surface than shorter storms, so that would imply less interaction. One thing mountains can do, however, is force air aloft and cause more clouds and severe rainfall... so, might not be good for Cuba, but I guess they're used to it.
