In Haiti, the most affected area could extend from the West side, Môle Saint-Nicolas to the Dominican border, east side.

To 10am, this Monday, the center Irene was located to 19.2 degrees north and 67.5 degrees West. To 495 km (308 miles) Southeast of Cap Haitien with sustained winds (maximum) of 130 km/h (80 mi/h), with higher gusts. Winds extend outward up to 45 km (30 mi) from the center.
