Hurricane Patricia -- the strongest hurricane ever recorded -- weakened slightly as it barreled closer to Mexico's Pacific coast, with sustained winds decreasing to 190 mph and gusts to 235 mph on Friday afternoon, the National Hurricane Center said in its latest advisory.
Residents are bracing for potentially catastrophic 200 mph sustained winds and torrential rains.
The excessive wind speeds, according to the head of the Mexican agency that includes its national weather service, "makes Patricia the most dangerous storm in history."

“Residents are bracing?”! They should be fleeing!!!!
They are expecting a 20ft storm surge.
Damn that Trump! He stole Rove’s weather machine for vengance!
Bush’s Fault! George Bush Hates Mexican Peoples!
*SMIRK*
But, seriously, prayers up because this is going to be ug-lee! I’ve been to Mexico many times; won’t ever go again, but it does have it’s charms in the safer parts of the country.
14 SECONDS, ya bustard, LOL!
Get Geraldo and Shep down there on the beach NOW!

Baja south of Ensenada was a paradise.
Was.
So sad. Death and destruction, homes collapsed and strewn across the land, raw sewage flowing in the street . . . and now this hurricane.
Saw shot, sunk same ;)
Powerful, but the eye looks pretty tight. The highest winds should not cover too large of an area.
The liberals will blame this storm on global warming.
Hey, what’s the deal? We move from the east coast to Arizona to get away from hurricanes. Looks like they’re following us. This one is supposed to be the strongest storm ever recorded? Zamboni, baton up the hatches.
Great, more illegals. Sorry, but after 3 decades of fighting this invasion I have become numb to their plight.
As if Mexico didn’t have enough problems already. We all know too that when Mexico has a problem it becomes America’s problem too.
Obama has planes standing by to bring all effected to the US instead of providing Money and material so they can rebuild
[Mexican authorities declared a state of emergency on Friday in the states of Colima, Nayarit and Jalisco, and residents and tourists soon began evacuating coastal areas.]
That’s a rather late notice for evacuation.
