That is the corrected link, it's a story from last night. Thanks !

Looks pretty healthy this am and is beginning to impinge on the coast.

One 'purist' correction: this is NOT the first known TC in the SA: that was in 1991 (see Landsea's FAQs); it IS the first HURRICANE to be observed .

The Brits had it recurving and weakening (at first) yesterday. Looks like it has moved w-wsw and strengthened.

Somebody is getting a surprise in Brazil--I think the state is Minas Gerais, but, I am not sure.
