Haitians were urged to stock up with water, food and medication as authorities checked on some of the 200,000 people displaced by gang violence.
Meanwhile, Tropical Storm Harold weakened into a tropical depression on Tuesday night after making landfall in South Texas, bringing strong winds, rain and leaving thousands of homes without power.
Some recalled that a powerful thunderstorm that unleashed heavy rain one day in June left more than 40 people dead across Haiti. Flooding had already been reported on Tuesday in Santo Domingo and beyond, where residents prepared for heavy rain. Others, like businesswoman Albita Achangel, feared they have nowhere to go if the waters start rising.The storm worried thousands of Dominicans who live in flood-prone areas.
A tropical storm warning was in effect for the entire southern coast of the Dominican Republic and Haiti, as well as the entire northern Dominican coast. A tropical storm watch was posted for the Turks and Caicos Islands.
