 Cindy brought considerable rainfall to southern and eastern parts of the Dominican Republic , with totals of 4 – 10 in ( 100 – 255 mm ) . Upon the storm 's landfall in the country , winds reached 35 mph ( 55 km / h ) in Barahona . The rain filled rivers and caused scattered street flooding , affecting hundreds of houses . In Villa Altagracia , one fatality occurred when a child drowned in flood waters ; the final death toll for the country stood at two . There were no reports of damage elsewhere after Cindy 's rapid demise over Hispaniola , though it is likely that the remnants produced localized showers in Haiti .
