Flood misery

, October 22, 2013

A man drives his motorcycle through a street flooded by rain brought by Hurricane Raymond in Acapulco on October 21. Schools were to stay closed and travel warnings were issued along Mexico's southern Pacific coast on Monday as a region still reeling from record flooding battened down the hatches against a major hurricane moving toward the shore. Raymond, a category three hurricane, was blowing winds of up to 120 miles per hour (193 kph) early on Monday, more than 100 miles (161 km) offshore, and forecasters said it could head west later this week without hitting land.
