Looks like just under an hour ago it touched down in Mexico.
During the time the three hurricanes hit the Pacific at the end of September, up here in Region X, high winds knocked out power along the I-5 corridor. Trees falling everywhere. Thousands without power. This is just way on the outskirts of those events.

Here is a link to the event:

Hurricane Patricia Becomes Strongest Hurricane Ever Recorded

Mexico's Pacific coast is in the crosshairs of Hurricane Patricia, which became the most powerful tropical cyclone ever measured in the Western Hemisphere on Friday morning as its maximum sustained winds reached an unprecedented 200 mph (320 kph).

The hurricane is forecast to make landfall in the Mexican state of Jalisco Friday evening as a catastrophic Category 5 hurricane capable of causing widespread destruction. Residents and authorities in Mexico are rushing to prepare for what will likely be the strongest hurricane to ever make landfall on that country's Pacific coastline.
