Tropical Cyclone Jokwe, packing winds of nearly 100 mph, is within hours of making landfall in Mozambique, according to the Joint Typhoon Warning Center.

The Category 2 hurricane already passed Madagascar as a Category 1 storm, doing little damage to that cyclone-battered island nation (the death count from Cyclone Ivan was recently upped to 83, and hundreds of thousands remain homeless, according to the United Nations World Meteorological Organization).

Mozambique has already suffered serious flooding this year, and Cyclone Jokwe promises more destructive weather.

Tropical Cyclone Jokwe is expected to strike Mozambique as a weak Category 2 hurricane.
