A Cuban man rides his cycle in the rain as Hurricane Wilma
approaches in Havana, Cuba October 21, 2005. Hurricane Wilma, an
extremely dangerous Category 4 storm pounding Mexico's Caribbean
beach resorts with ferocious winds and rains, was projected to
strike Florida on Monday, according to all of the major weather
models. The northwestern eyewall of Wilma was over the island of
Cozumel in Mexico, the U.S. National Hurricane Center said in an
advisory Friday, noting the center of the storm could make landfall
on northeastern Yucatan tonight. The eyewall, the eye of the storm
surrounded by a vertical wall of clouds, is a hurricane's most
devastating region. After leaving the Yucatan, the hurricane will
churn northeast across the Gulf of Mexico toward the south-central
Gulf Coast of Florida, according to the weather models.
