Hurricane Patricia, strongest ever recorded
Patricia -- the strongest hurricane ever recorded --is getting closer and closer Friday morning to Mexico's Pacific coast, where residents have been told to brace for its 325 km/h sustained winds and torrential rains. (Source: and )
鈥淭he most intense tropical cyclones are expected to intensify from anthropogenic climate change. Therefore, storms like Patricia may become more likely in the future, but the cause of an individual storm cannot be directly attributed to climate change.鈥
