I actually read a paper while as an undergrad about tropical cyclone interaction with cuba vs. hispanola. interestingly, hispanola has saved the u.s. (statistically) much more often that cuba for system interacting with both land masses... goes to show how much 2,200ft mountains - not really the depth of the planetary boundary layer - have much less impact over 9,000 ft mountains...
