Hurricane Rachel Strengthens to Category 2 Off of Mexico's Pacific Coast
Mexican authorities warned of very heavy rain, landslides and flooding as the storm moved offshore with 105 mph winds, the National Hurricane Center said.
- On Thursday, Hurricane Rachel strengthened into a Category 3 cyclone off Mexico's Pacific coast, packing 105 mph winds while positioned 230 miles south of Baja California.
- Meteorologists attribute the unusually active Pacific hurricane season to El Niño, which fueled conditions following damage from Hurricane Polo earlier this week in Baja California Sur.
- Mexican authorities remain on alert across Baja California Sur, Sinaloa, and Jalisco for heavy rain, landslides, and overflowing rivers as the storm approaches the coastline.
- Storm remnants drenching the central U.S. left more than 20,000 residents without power in Texas and prompted 80 water rescues in Omaha after Wednesday's heavy rainfall.
- The U.S. Embassy in Mexico warned citizens in Cabos San Lucas of deadly rip currents and port closures as Rachel is projected to veer west away from the Mexican coast.
