What happened

Well supportedReported by 4 independent outlets

El Niño is driving increased tropical cyclone activity in the Pacific. Hurricane Polo, a Category 5 storm with 160 mph winds, is forecast to make landfall in Baja California Sur and mainland Mexico by early next week. Meanwhile, Hurricane Nolo is passing south of the Big Island of Hawaii, where heavy rain and wind are expected.
