Cyclone Otis wreaked havoc after 150 years...


Mexico, which is situated on the Pacific Ocean, had a rough day on Wednesday, october 25, 2023, when Hurricane Otis made landfall there with a speed of 230 km/h. Its coastal parts were totally damaged by strong winds and rain. Because of how powerful this storm was, many people's homes, cars that were parked outdoors, electric poles, trees, and mobile towers were severely damaged.

Controlling the storm became extremely difficult due to its strength. Authorities in mexico claim that this powerful cyclone, which smashed all previous records, occurred after 1950. Furthermore, he claimed that because the storm reached the coast within 12 hours of its formation, we were not even given enough time to make plans to avoid it.

How is the cyclone doing right now?

The Mexican Civil Authority claims that it is currently unknown how many people have been harmed by this. Considering that its present speed is 45 km/h. This indicates that throughout the past 12 hours, it has accelerated from 215 mph to 130 mph, reaching a current average speed of 45 mph. However, in the process, it has seriously damaged numerous other locations. At the moment, attempts are being undertaken to link the areas affected by the calamity.

Reports that almost ten lakh individuals are impacted

Otis smashed the coast near Acapulco, home to about a million people. This massive hurricane has all but destroyed this popular tourist destination in Mexico. US scientists think that the warming of the Pacific Ocean's waters is to blame for this. They contend that global warming is to blame for the storm. 

The Mexican President himself has arrived and informed the media that we have not been able to establish communication in the regions where this storm has passed. Our goal is to establish contact with such regions.
