Hurricane threatens Mexican resort
Hurricane Jova has strengthened to a major Category 3 hurricane as it marches toward Mexico’s Pacific coast, threatening the idyllic beach resort of Barra de Navidad and one of the nation’s biggest cargo ports.
Jova’s maximum sustained winds built to near 125mph by Monday morning, and the US National Hurricane Centre in Miami said it could reach Category 4 with winds of greater than 130mph on Tuesday before hitting land.
