I am surprised I can find so little about this on tv? In the worst case scenario come true, the southern tip of Mexicos Baja Peninsula took a direct hit from Hurricane Odile last night. The storm, a category three with winds of 125 MPH at landfall, caused colossal damage to the heavily-frequented tourist destination, including Cabo San Lucas. Likely due to infrastructure issues, damage photos coming out of the region are sparse yet gut-punching. Most of the photos depict damage to resort hotels, but Odiles track caused major damage inland as well. The Los Cabos International Airport looks like it was bombed, with the large terminal housing the check-in counters completely trashed. One of the more sobering reports of the storm comes from iCyclones Facebook page. The team rode out the storm in Cabo San Lucas and live-Facebooked the ordeal from their hotel, saying that it was the worst cyclone theyve ever lived through.
