Tropical Storm Vince taking aim at...Portugal? The National Hurricane Center's advisory puts it best:

THE LONG AND STRANGE 2005 HURRICANE SEASON CONTINUES AS
TROPICAL STORM VINCE BEARS DOWN ON THE SOUTHERN IBERIAN PENINSULA
AND NORTHWESTERN MOROCCO...THE
OFFICIAL FORECAST CALLS FOR VINCE TO CONTINUE MOVING EAST-NORTHEAST
TO NORTHEASTWARD UNTIL LANDFALL OCCURS ALONG THE COASTS OF SOUTHERN
PORTUGAL AND EXTREME SOUTHWESTERN SPAIN BETWEEN 06-12Z.

For those who aren't into following hurricanes, this is not normal. In fact, this is one of the weirdest things I have ever seen in the Atlantic. Almost as weird as the "hurricane" that hit Brazil in 2004.
