The apparent formation is unprecedented category 1 hurricane has formed about 442 km off the southern coast of Brazil, surprising forecasters - who have never seen such a phenomenon occurring in the region. Satellite images show a large spiral, about the size of Uruguay near the coast of Santa Catarina. "The feature, by satellite photo, is a hurricane because it has a well defined eye, the movement is circular and is totally detached from the cold front," said meteorologist Marlene Odette Chiesa, National Institute of Meteorology in Brasilia. "If we were to set this sitema according to the temperature of the sea, he could not be formed, especially because we fall. So, would not be a hurricane. Depending on your point of view of analysis, we classify as extratropical cyclone or a hurricane, but at present we have a final, "he added. Both Barnes and Chiesa confirmed astonishment at the discovery of the storm that, if declared a hurricane in fact, represent an unprecedented event in the South Atlantic since the climate satellite monitoring began in 1960. "We have a total divergence estimates of the phenomenon because it is something we've never seen before. It is quite historic in that sense. The Brazilians have never had this experience, "said Barnes.
