Update, 8:10 p.m.: Hurricane Matthew is now officially a Category 4 storm, which means its winds are reaching speeds between 140 and 165 mph. The storm may even soon reach Category 5 status—the most dangerous level at which hurricanes are classified—and hurricane warnings have been issued for cities as widely spread as Palm Beach, Orlando (which is about 40 miles inland of the Atlantic) and Savannah, Georgia.**
Matthew's death toll in the Caribbean now stands at an estimated 113, including 108 deaths in Haiti.
