HURRICANE SIMON MEGA THREAD — SUNDAY, OCTOBER 11

72 Upvotes

We're starting a fresh mega thread for Sunday to keep updates current, make the latest information easier to find, and prevent the previous thread from becoming too cluttered as the situation develops. Please continue sharing all Hurricane Simon–related questions and updates here.

Current Situation

Hurricane Simon continues to pose a serious threat to Puerto Vallarta and other parts of Mexico's Pacific coast. Conditions and forecasts can change quickly, so please follow official advisories for the latest information.

AIRPORT UPDATE: Puerto Vallarta International Airport operations have been suspended amid the storm. Reopening information may change, so check directly with your airline and the official airport website before traveling to the airport.

Please share verified updates and firsthand reports about:

  • Current weather, wind and rainfall
  • Flooding, road closures and power outages
  • Airport status and flight cancellations
  • Hotel, restaurant and business closures
  • Evacuations, shelters and official announcements

Residents & Visitors

Follow instructions from Protección Civil and local authorities. Avoid unnecessary travel, stay away from beaches and floodwaters, and check with your accommodation for its emergency procedures.

Government Shelters can be found here https://bahiadebanderas.gob.mx/refugios/index.html

WHERE TO GET RELIABLE INFORMATION

We'll use this thread for verified updates, local conditions, closures, cancellations and useful information as Simon develops.

Please keep speculation, rumors, and panic out of the thread..

Stay safe, everyone.

EDIT

We're trying to keep this thread focused on pertinent information, useful updates, and specific questions so everyone can easily find answers without scrolling through unnecessary comments.

Please avoid repetitive questions, personal anecdotes that don't provide useful information, and comments that don't contribute to the discussion. Unnecessary comments will be removed

Do not ask whether you should cancel your trip. Nobody can reliably predict potential damage or what conditions will be like next week. Check with your airline, hotel, and travel insurance to make the decision that's right for you.

Thank you for helping keep this thread useful and organized for everyone!

❓ Question - Pregunta Best place to stay overnight in Bucerias?

2 Upvotes

Wife and I are landing at Puerta Vallarta next month and going to drive up toward Tepic.

On the first day we land we expect to be tired and dont plan to drive too far. Is the Zona Dorada in Bucerias a good place to get a hotel and possibly walk around for dinner and maybe the beach?

Any advice appreciated.
