Hurricane Odile slams Mexican resorts M'Lynn Musgrove

Hurricane Odile, starting out as a category 3 storm has slammed resorts in Mexico. At least 15,000 tourists were evacuated from Cabo, Mexico. Although the storm has subsided to a category 3 storm, that hasn't stopped it from tearing up docks, trees, and beaches of Mexico. Some people who didn't leave in time were trapped in bathrooms for the majority of the day. 

I think this is extremely sad. Mexico is a beautiful place with beautiful beaches. Although it is devastating, I think most of the damage was done to tourist locations, not peoples homes. This could potentially cause  decrease in the economy with rebuilding and a lowering in income from hotels and tourists.
