Erick Turns Rainmaker After Hitting Southern Mexico’s Pacific Coast as a Strong Hurricane

Date:

ACAPULCO, Mexico—With a steady rain falling on Acapulco, residents and remaining tourists emerged Thursday evening to walk outside or visit the few open businesses as the tropical depression that once was powerful Hurricane Erick scraped by just inland of the resort.

Erick came ashore down southern Mexico’s Pacific coast in the morning as a Category 3 major hurricane, but it landed in a sparsely populated stretch of coastline between resorts Acapulco and Puerto Escondido.
