Hurricane Simon approaches Mexico's Pacific coast as residents prepare for possible flooding in Puerto Vallarta, while Acapulco reports damaged boats, debris-strewn beaches and flooded roads. Footage filmed on October 9, 2026, shows residents filling sandbags, boarding up storefronts and reinforcing hotel entrances in Puerto Vallarta, Jalisco. Mexico's Navy is also seen patrolling the area as coastal communities prepare for the storm's potential impact. In Acapulco, Guerrero, fishermen describe rough conditions that left several boats sunk or wrecked along the beach. Debris covers parts of the coastline, while a bus navigates a flooded road.
