Hurricane Simon Still Hitting Western Mexico After Tropical Systems Kill 5

Rescuers evacuated 32 people in Baja California as flooding, mudslides and power outages spread across coastal towns and tourist areas.

  • On Monday, Hurricane Simon brought heavy rainfall and flooding to western Mexico, while search-and-rescue teams in Ensenada combed inundated neighborhoods for victims.
  • Four bodies were recovered in Ensenada, including a 13-year-old girl and a 4-year-old boy, as Baja California Civil Protection Coordinator Ignacio Lozoya confirmed six people remain missing.
  • Approximately 14,000 personnel deployed across Baja California for emergency assistance, while military helicopters airlifted 32 individuals, including 22 foreign missionaries, from a ranch in Ensenada on Monday.
  • Simon caused power outages and road obstructions in Acapulco and Guerrero state, adding to damage from recent storms that left five people dead in the region.
  • Meteorologist Andrew Orrison warned that disturbed weather still lingers, though conditions are expected to clear by Wednesday as remnants of Tropical Storm Rachel dissipate.
