Bermuda is bracing for the impact of Hurricane Imelda, a stronger storm than Hurricane Humberto, which is already affecting the island with wind gusts and rain. Imelda, forecast to strengthen into a Category 2 hurricane, is expected to bring sustained hurricane-force winds for up to six hours. Authorities have closed schools and government offices, urging residents to complete storm preparations. Imelda has previously caused fatalities and significant disruption in Cuba and the Bahamas.
