Trudy strengthens to a hurricane as system nears Mexico’s coast with major storm expected
- On Thursday, Trudy intensified into a Category 1 hurricane about 300 miles southwest of Acapulco, Mexico, with maximum sustained winds of 75 mph, the U.S. National Hurricane Center reported.
- The storm approaches a Mexican coastline already impacted by recent heavy rains from hurricanes Polo, Rachel, and Simon, which left behind severe flooding and several deaths in the region.
- Forecasters expect Trudy to "rapidly intensify" into a major hurricane on Friday, bringing 4 to 8 inches of rainfall across Colima and Jalisco states through the weekend.
- Mexican authorities and the NHC warned that swells generated by Trudy will cause life-threatening surf and rip current conditions along the southwestern coast over the coming days.
- The eastern Pacific sets a record for the busiest storm season, with accumulated cyclone energy of 331 surpassing the previous full-season record of 318 set in 2018.
