RT @US_Stormwatch :
In a shocking turn of events, Hurricane #Otis in the Eastern Pacific has unexpectedly, explosively intensified from a tropical storm to a Category 4 hurricane in just 12 hours. Even worse, the storm is expected to make a catastrophic landfall tonight as a Category 5 hurricane near Acapulco, Mexico, home to 1 million people. Only 18 hours ago, people were expecting a tropical storm at landfall, and now a devastating Category 5 storm is likely. 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. A major hurricane (Category 3+) has never made landfall within 50 miles of Acapulco, let alone a Category 5 hurricane. Otis could become the first Eastern Pacific hurricane ever recorded to make landfall as a Category 5 in Mexico. Anyone in or near Acapulco should rush storm preparations to completion as their is little time left to shelter from #Otis.
