Greetings everyone. Thanks for stopping by. With less than a month left in the Atlantic hurricane season I will continue with hurricane preparedness information that you'll find helpful. First, let's start with an infographic on dressing for winter weather. It's not to early to think about your cold weather wardrobe. There are several other interesting reads this week, so let's get started.

Amateur Radio Operators Provide Post-Hurricane Communications in Mexico

Radio Amateurs are providing communication services to and from the affected areas in and around Acapulco, Mexico.

On the morning of Wednesday, October 25, 165 mile-per-hour winds from Hurricane Otis knocked out all communications and unleashed a nightmare scenario in Acapulco.

Prior to landfall, the Visible Infrared Imaging Radiometer Suite (VIIRS) sensor on the NOAA-20 satellite captured this false-color image of the storm at about 08:30 Universal Time (2:30 AM in Acapulco) on October 24, 2023.

The area is home to roughly 800,000 people.

Radio Club Queretaro member Ruben Navarrete Galvan, XE1EC, told ARRL News that amateur radio operators are still active with multiple operations, and they are receiving citizen requests to obtain information on the whereabouts of their relatives.

"We keep an online database with these requests that we share with the different hams participating in the operation. Read-only access to this database is provided to the authorities who might need it, too. We also transmit this information to hams deployed in the Acapulco area via HF," Galvan said.

This is insane!

According to The Washington Post, a #weather station near #Acapulco recorded a wind gust of 205 mph during the landfall of Category 5 Hurricane Otis, which is one of the highest ever observed in the world.

#Otis is the strongest #hurricane on record to strike the west coast of Mexico.

For the record, the highest ever recorded wind gust was measured on Barrow Island, Australia, in 1996, with a speed of 253 mph.

"Estela Sandoval Díaz was huddled in her tiny concrete bathroom, sure these were the final moments of her life, when Hurricane Otis ripped off her tin roof.

The Category 5 hurricane damaged nearly all of Acapulco’s homes, left bodies bobbing along the coastline and much of the city foraging for food."

Following the storm, the city descended into a state of lawlessness. Trees and rubble blocked the main road for a day, and no cellphone signal left its 1 million people effectively cut off from the world.

Without options, Sandoval and many others took basic goods like food and toilet paper from ransacked stores and funneled gasoline out of tubes from broken-down gas stations. Those with chronic illnesses scrambled to find medicine they needed to survive.

Residents foraging for food in warehouses Saturday said they waited hours in the beating sun for food and water from a government aid truck only to find there wasn’t enough for them.

Children stood on roadsides waving empty water bottles and families screamed, “Help us! We’re desperate!” at cars with shattered windshields and military trucks passing by.

Acapulco is home to more than 1 million people. At the time of writing, authorities had confirmed 27 deaths, with four people still missing.
