Residents of Mexico’s Los Cabos Resorts Brace for Impact of Hurricane Norma and Tammy

Residents of Mexico’s Los Cabos resorts are bracing for the impact of Hurricane Norma, which is expected to make landfall on Saturday. The storm, located 30 miles west-southwest of Cabo San Lucas, has winds of 100 mph (155 kmh) and is moving at 8 mph, according to the U.S. National Hurricane Center.

In anticipation of the storm, businesses in Cabo San Lucas have been nailing up sheets of plywood over their windows, while government personnel have been hanging up banners warning people not to try to cross gullies and stream beds.

At the same time, Hurricane Tammy is threatening to batter the islands of the Lesser Antilles in the Atlantic. The storm is currently located 1,150 miles east-southeast of the Lesser Antilles and is moving west-northwest at 15 mph.

The National Hurricane Center has warned that both storms could bring life-threatening wind, storm surge, and rainfall to the affected areas. They have urged residents to take all necessary precautions to protect themselves and their property.

The Mexican government has also issued a hurricane warning for the southern tip of the Baja California Peninsula, and has urged residents to remain vigilant and follow all instructions from local authorities.
