Hurricane Jimena, which is now a Category 4 storm, has hit Mexico's Baja California peninsula. The storm, with winds of around 230 kilometres per hour, has forced thousands of tourists to flee the Las Cabos resort area. The authorities have ordered some 20,000 families to evacuate their homes.
The storm forced the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development to move from the Los Cabos resort to Mexico City.
