Re: Dennis Over Cuba

I have another question (even tho my first about sst didn't get answered yet...). Wouldn't it be worse, not better, for Havana for the eye to pass just to the east? Even if west of the eye is not as strong as the east, if the eye is passing close enough, and there are strong winds all around the eye, then could the north winds create more of a problem with water, since the coastline is on the north, not the south? Or is storm surge not an issue in this case since the storm came from the south over land?
