Tropical storm Andres strengthens off Mexico
A strengthening Tropical Storm Andres roared toward Mexico’s Pacific coast today, prompting emergency preparations for a storm that forecasters predicted would become the season’s first hurricane.
Forecasters said Andres was likely to brush the coast at hurricane strength around the port city of Manzanillo later today. The forecast track showed its centre later pushing up the coast near picturesque towns such as Barra de Navidad that are home to some American and Canadian expatriates.
