Hurricane Odile made landfall on the shores of Cabo San Lucas late Sunday night as a category 3, almost category 4 hurricane. The U.S. National Hurricane Center in Miami said Odile's center made landfall at about 9:45 p.m. PDT near Cabo San Lucas. It said at landfall, Odile had estimated wind speed of 125 mph, and an automated station near Cabo San Lucas reported sustained winds of 89 mph with a gust to 116 mph. This historic storm is the first hurricane to make a direct hit on Cabo San Lucas with maximum impact. Odile continues to march up the Baja peninsula while steadily weakening. News of flooding and wind damage are already being reported. We were all hoping that Odile would have taken the same path as Norbert, but that was not the case. Our thoughts and prayers go out to our family in Baja.
Nos vemos,
Marcos
