Rafael becomes major hurricane, forecast moves storm away from Louisiana
NHC

Hurricane Rafael strengthened to a Category 3 storm before making landfall on the south coast of Cuba Wednesday afternoon.

The storm will move northwest across the island and into the Gulf of Mexico by tomorrow.


Forecasters expect it to move mainly to the west as it encounters wind shear and dryer air.

Rafael could weaken to a tropical storm by the end of the weekend.
