ACAPULCO, Mexico (AP) — With a steady rain falling on Acapulco, residents and remaining tourists emerged Thursday evening to walk outside or visit the few open businesses as the remnants of Hurricane Erick scraped by just inland of the resort.

Hurricane Erick made landfall on the coast of Oaxaca, Mexico, authorities said, potentially bringing intense rains and life-threatening floods and mudslides. The storm made landfall around 5:30 a.

The hurricane was downgraded from a Category 4 to a Category 3 storm as it landed, with maximum sustained winds near 125 mph.
