This sudden shift from expectations of a tropical storm to a Category 5 hurricane leaves residents with little time to find safe shelter and protect themselves and their property.
Otis might become the first Eastern Pacific hurricane to make a Category 5 landfall in Mexico. Those in or near Acapulco should expedite storm preparations as there's limited time to shelter from Otis.
