The death toll from Hurricane Otis in Mexico rises to 39 as searchers continue to recover bodies from debris and the harbor in Acapulco. President Lopez Obrador accuses his opponents of trying to inflate the toll for political gain, but there are expectations that the number will continue to rise. The storm, which rapidly strengthened to a Category 5 hurricane, left hundreds of families still awaiting news of their loved ones. Many of the victims were fishers or yacht captains who were trying to protect their boats when the storm hit. Despite losing her own livelihood, one fisher feels fortunate and helps in the recovery effort by swimming with empty gas jugs to try to raise sunken boats. While aid has been slow to arrive, a more organized relief operation is taking shape as volunteers and government workers clear streets and distribute essentials. The connection between climate change and hurricanes like Otis is an ongoing topic of discussion.
