Relief fund for Tropical Storm Noel in Haiti Monday, November 5, 2007 Tropical Storm Noel began lashing Haiti with heavy rains late Sunday as it slowly neared the impoverished Caribbean nation, generating fears of flash flooding on deforested hills often blanketed by rows of flimsy shacks. Noel, the 14th named storm of the Atlantic season, was projected to reach Haiti and the Dominican Republic - which share the island of Hispaniola - early Monday, before heading on toward Cuba. The strengthening Caribbean storm, which formed into a tropical storm earlier Sunday, poses a serious threat to Haiti, where floods killed at least 37 earlier this month. Widespread deforestation and poor drainage mean that even moderate rains can cause devastation in Haiti, where thousands of people build ramshackle homes in flood plains. Dominican authorities said at least 600 people had been evacuated as the storm touched off landslide, flooded rivers and pushed storm surges onto Santo Domingo's seaside boulevard. Swollen rivers also forced evacuations in Cabaret, a town north of Port-au-Prince where floods killed at least 23 people earlier this month, said Marie Alta Jean-Baptiste, director of Haiti's civil protection agency.
