Moreover, "in the next 12 to 24 hours this tropical organism will move in a course towards the west and west-northwest, with a similar speed to the north of Villa Clara," the institute said.
The experts highlighted that the central region of Fred, in this trajectory, would be leaving the sea early Saturday morning, along the north coast between the provinces of Mayabeque and Matanzas.
