US-HAITI-BAHAMAS-HANNA
This September 1, 2008 NASA Terra satellite image shows Tropical Strom Hanna. Tropical storm Hanna turned its heavy winds and rains on the Bahamas and threatened to head toward the southeastern US coastline after leaving at least 19 dead in Haiti. With the storm possibly expanding into a full-blown hurricane, officials throughout the Bahamas archipelago issued emergency warnings and readied hurricane shelters. At 0600 GMT, the center of Hanna was hovering just east of Ile de la Tortue in Haiti, 130 kilometers (80 miles) southeast of Great Inagua island in the southeastern Bahamas, with maximum sustained winds of 100 kilometers (60 miles) per hour, the National Hurricane Center said. The NHC said the storm would pick up speed and probably begin moving to the northwest September 3, putting it on a direct track to Nassau Thursday afternoon and then Grand Bahama island.
