QUOTES:
"SANCHEZ MAGALLANES, Mexico - Tropical Storm Larry hit the southern coast
of the Gulf of Mexico Sunday morning, forcing hundreds of people to flee to
shelters, while a second storm strengthened to a hurricane and threatened
Mexico's Pacific coast.

Mexico has been bracing for three storms along its coasts this weekend.

Tropical Storm Larry is considered the most dangerous, but officials were
also keeping a close eye on Olaf, which strengthened to a hurricane Sunday.

Olaf was moving parallel to the Pacific coast 145 miles south of
Manzanillo, but a change of course could easily bring the hurricane
onshore, the National Hurricane Center in Miami warned.

A second hurricane, Nora, was churning far off the southern tip of Baja
California in the Pacific and was expected to weaken as it moves closer to
land in the coming days.

Forecasts show that Nora and Olaf could both reach the Baja California
peninsula, which already has withstood two hurricanes this season.

Larry, meanwhile, moved inland over Tabasco state about 65 miles east of
the industrial city of Coatzacoalcos, provoking floods in an already
saturated region.

The tropical storm turned the fishing village Isla Paraiso into a ghost
town, with water standing 3-feet deep in some houses."
