According to The Washington Post, a #weather station near #Acapulco recorded a wind gust of 205 mph during the landfall of Category 5 Hurricane Otis, which is one of the highest ever observed in the world.
#Otis is the strongest #hurricane on record to strike the west coast of Mexico.
For the record, the highest ever recorded wind gust was measured on Barrow Island, Australia, in 1996, with a speed of 253 mph.
"Estela Sandoval Díaz was huddled in her tiny concrete bathroom, sure these were the final moments of her life, when Hurricane Otis ripped off her tin roof.

The number of people dead and missing due to Hurricane Otis, a Category 5 storm which hammered the Mexican Pacific resort city of Acapulco last week, has risen to 100, the government of the southern state of Guerrero said on Monday.
