Hurricane Patricia Possibly Strongest Hurricane Ever Recorded

Hurricane Patricia: The black represents the maximum winds on planet Earth

The people who fly planes over hurricanes to measure conditions did so with Patricia and recorded winds upwards of 200 mph -- the strongest tropical cyclone ever recorded anywhere on earth.

As a parent concerned about the world I will pass on to future generations, this storm appears a symptom of a worsening global climate.

My wish is for the people of Mexico to ride out the storm in safety.
