MIAMI (AP) — Hurricane Trudy strengthened to a major hurricane early Friday off Mexico’s Pacific coast.
The Category 3 hurricane had maximum sustained winds of 195 kph (120 mph) and was moving northwest at 9 kph (6 mph), the U.S. National Hurricane Center in Miami said.
It was about 420 kilometers (260 miles) southwest of Acapulco and about 590 kilometers (365 miles) south-southeast of Manzanillo.
Trudy was forecast to get stronger over the next couple of days. The eye was forecast to approach the coast of southwestern and west-central Mexico on Saturday.

A decision with potential for ‘distraction’ and ‘disrespect’ in Transcona

Transcona voters acknowledge they have a tough decision to make at the ballot box on election day.
The east Winnipeg working-class ward is replete with lawn signs and posters, but most of the people the Free Press spoke with said they were still undecided.
While Winnipeg is, historically, more likely to elect an incumbent, longtime councillor Russ Wyatt is seeking a sixth term while facing five criminal charges, including sexual assault and administering a noxious substance, after incidents alleged to have occurred in 2023 and 2025.
Residents are not without options. In addition to Wyatt, former councillor Shawn Nason — who occupied the city council seat from 2018-22 — is running for council (Wyatt chose not to run in the 2018 election after taking several months off to undergo addictions treatment), and there are three new faces on the ballot: Lora Meseman, Chris Giesbrecht and Nathine Dagdick.

Expect more of a grind than a shootout as Bombers face Elks on the road

EDMONTON — Which version of the Winnipeg Blue Bombers are going to show up this week?
To punch their ticket to the playoffs, they better hope it’s the one that plays three-phase football for a full four quarters on Friday night at Commonwealth Stadium.
That’s likely what it’ll take to outlast the first-place Edmonton Elks (12-4) — who are also extra motivated considering they can clinch their first West Division regular-season title since 2015 with a victory.
The Bombers (8-8) can also secure a post-season berth this weekend if the Calgary Stampeders (8-9) fall to the B.C. Lions (10-6) on Saturday, but they’re not looking for a handout.
More than 120 people were arrested as part of the Winnipeg Police Service’s fall retail theft initiative.
The crackdown aimed to reduce crime and enhance public safety at shopping centres and other businesses. Officers conducted proactive enforcement at more than 30 retail businesses across the city.
In total, 123 people were arrested, more than 240 charges were laid, and more than $21,000 in stolen merchandise was recovered, the Winnipeg Police Service said in a news release Thursday.
Fifteen people were repeat offenders and 33 were detained in custody, police said.
