Waves pound Havana's Malecon as Hurricane Ike approaches September 8, 2008. Hurricane Ike is not yet weakening over Cuba and will likely reach the Gulf of Mexico as a Category 1 hurricane before taking aim at the oil-rich Texas-Louisiana coast later in the week, the U.S. National Hurricane Center forecast in its 11 a.m. EDT report on Monday.
