La Habana, donde el intenso huracán Irma se despidió de Cuba , amaneció hoy sin grandes estragos pero con su emblemático Malecón devorado por la furia de las inmensas olas que el meteoro arrastró a su paso, mientras habaneros y turistas contemplan atónitos la escena bajo una llovizna intermitente.
Casi toda la ciudad se ha quedado sin servicio de electricidad, desconectada preventivamente antes de comenzar el embate de Irma, que ha dejado anegadas una serie de calles aledañas al paseo marítimo del litoral.
La curiosidad del cubano, marcada por la inusitada experiencia que ofreció este poderoso meteoro, motivó a salir a muchos de sus casas esta mañana para presenciar directamente el panorama de inundaciones fuertes, numerosos árboles derribados y destrozos de diversa consideración.
