Hurricane Polo, located off Mexico's southern coast, is one of the strongest storms to appear over the Pacific in decades. A Tuesday notice from the Miami-based National Hurricane Center clocked Polo's wind speeds at a sustained 165 miles per hour. A notice this morning said that Polo's average wind speed had slowed slightly to 150, but the cyclone is still capable of strong gusts and is sending tropical storm force winds out over 100 miles from its center. Polo is forecast to be near Mexico's southwest coast for the next day or two. Though models suggest the storm will remain offshore while it continues to move west-northwest. Tropical storm watches and warnings have been issued for several areas along Mexico's coast.
