Tropical Storm Ernesto has intensified, causing widespread disruption across Puerto Rico with over 600,000 residents losing power due to heavy rains and strong winds. The storm, nearing hurricane strength, has prompted the closure of schools and government offices as it lashes the island and the Virgin Islands, threatening to further damage the fragile power infrastructure. The National Hurricane Center forecasts Ernesto to become a hurricane by Wednesday, with potential to evolve into a major hurricane as it moves towards Bermuda. The storm's progression brings heavy swells along the U.S. East Coast, signaling a broader impact beyond the immediate Caribbean region. Emergency services in affected areas are on high alert as the situation develops.
