Hurricane devestates Mexico.

 I have a life so vaguely heard that Alcapulco Mexico was hit by a hurricane last week, but I didn't realize it was this bad:

Newsweek Oct 25


Hurricane Otis made landfall as a catastrophic Category 5 hurricane early on Wednesday morning, smashing into Mexico's southern Pacific coast.

the problem? It went from an ordinary storm to a category 5 hurricane within 12 hours.

"This is pretty much a worst-case scenario, as residents have little time to find a safe shelter and protect life and property from this life-threatening storm," weather analyst Colin McCarthy said.

and things continue to be bad. Aid is getting there, but it takes time and the locals are lamenting about the lack of food etc. and blaming the government.

 And the press is blaming Global warming of course. 

Sigh.

Been there, done that.

In our prayers.
