Hurricane Huila, with winds of 215 km/h, was set to hit the Mexican Pacific coast, affecting tourist areas and fishing villages. Initially reaching category 5, it weakened to category 4, but still posed significant threats. The U.S. National Hurricane Center warned of dangerous conditions in southwest and central-west Mexico. Authorities prepared by boarding up windows and closing schools in low-lying areas. An emergency was declared for 19 municipalities in Nayarit and Sinaloa, with 7,000 to 8,000 people evacuated. Huila was expected to be a category 3 hurricane upon landfall.
