Rare November Hurricane Set to Hit the U.S.

Here is the storm's projected path

A rare November hurricane is expected to make landfall in the southern US this weekend, according to meteorologists.

Tropical Storm Rafael intensified into a Category 2 hurricane on Wednesday as it approached the Gulf of Mexico, according to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA). The storm is expected to make landfall in the south-central U.S.

Rafael is expected to strengthen to near major hurricane intensity before it reaches western Cuba, according to the National Hurricane Center. The center said it would likely emerge into the southeastern Gulf of Mexico tonight as a hurricane.
