Cuba Plunged into Darkness Again: Nationwide Blackout Follows Hurricane Rafael

This follows a four-day blackout just three weeks ago due to Hurricane Oscar and a failing power plant. The latest outage has sparked anger online as many point out that the grid has survived bigger hurricanes before. The storm has also brought evacuations, flooding, and landslides across Cuba, Jamaica, and the Cayman Islands.
