From the ballad of #RapidIntensification

"#HurricaneLidia, a Category 4 storm, roared ashore Tuesday night about 35 miles south-southwest of #PuertoVallarta on #Mexico’s west coast. The major hurricane was expected to unleash flooding rains, destructive winds and a dangerous ocean surge.

Lidia intensified with remarkable haste, growing from a tropical storm with 70 mph winds on Monday evening to a Category 4 hurricane with 140 mph winds 24 hours later."
