Hurricane Trudy threatened further heavy rain along Mexico’s
Pacific coast, according to a Reuters report published on 15 October.
The Category 1 hurricane was roughly 480 kilometres south-southwest of Acapulco, with maximum
sustained winds of 120 kph.
Forecasters expected rapid strengthening and warned that rainfall in Colima and Jalisco could cause life-threatening flooding and landslides.
Tropical Storm Simon was also offshore, farther northwest, after previously bringing heavy coastal rain as a hurricane.
These positions, intensities and forecasts describe the systems at the time of the report, rather than their current status.
