Luke 21:25,26 NAS “There will be signs in sun and moon and stars, and on the earth dismay (tension from difficult circumstances that "won't move" which produces distress or anguish – causing someone to feel "locked in" or “tightly pressed”) among nations, in perplexity at the roaring of the sea and the waves, men fainting (lose morale, become disheartened, like lapsing into temporary unconsciousness) from fear and the expectation of the things which are coming upon the world...
After slamming southwest Mexico with heavy rains causing landslides, flash flooding and multiple deaths, Tropical Storm Manuel moved back out to sea. There, it strengthened, and struck the Mexican coast in northwest Mexico Thursday as Class 1 Hurricane Manuel.
At least 80 people died when T.S. Manuel and Hurricane Ingrid struck within hours of each other earlier this week and at least 58 are still missing in a mudslide in Guerrero state.
The slide in the town of La Pintada destroyed “more than half” the town according to witnesses including burying a kindergarten, school and the town’s church.
The storm is now packing sustained 75 m.p.h. winds and is moving slowly along the coast near Sinaloa. Schools and businesses throughout the region are closed as the storm roars through the area. The fishing village of Yameto was evacuated.
The hurricane is expected to continue moving north to northwest over the next few days which should have it hit the city of Los Mochis this weekend.
