SciencePhoto: HT WorldHurricane Simon skirts Mexican coast with heavy rain and winds
Hurricane Simon, a Category 4 storm, shifted course and is forecast to pass about 15 kilometers off Mexico's Jalisco coast without making landfall. Despite this, coastal communities will face severe winds, waves up to nine meters, and heavy rainfall. The storm is part of an active Pacific hurricane season influenced by El Nino, which strengthens storms by reducing wind shear.
