Two hurricanes hit Mexico simultaneously on both coasts in September, causing at least 63 deaths, with 123 people still missing. The worst damage struck isolated, rural zones in the mountains around Acapulco. Residents climbed further into the rugged terrain to avoid the fast-flowing waters, meaning it took rescue workers a week to reach them. The village of Tierra Colorada had been almost completely washed away. Our correspondents were with the Red Cross workers who were the first to arrive.
