FOX Weather hurricane specialist Bryan Norcross spoke with FOX Weather meteorologist Amy Freeze on Wednesday morning to break down what went wrong with the official forecast with Hurricane Otis ahead of its historic landfall near Acapulco, Mexico, on Wednesday, October 25, 2023.
Tropical Storm Otis rapidly intensified into a Category 5 hurricane Tuesday as it approached the southern coast of Mexico, where it made a historic landfall overnight near Acapulco.
The National Hurricane Center (NHC) said Otis made landfall 5 miles south of Acapulco around 1:25 a.m. CDT Wednesday as a Category 5 hurricane packing destructive winds of 165 mph. Otis was the strongest hurricane to ever make landfall on the Pacific side of Mexico. It was also the first time an Eastern Pacific hurricane made landfall at Category 5 intensity.
