Simon has strengthened into a powerful Category 4 hurricane as it barrels toward Mexico’s coast. The National Hurricane Centre (NHC) in Miami said early Saturday that Simon’s maximum sustained winds had increased to 150 miles per hour. A storm of that strength or greater is considered a major hurricane. Simon could bring as much as ten to 20 inches of rainfall over parts of south western Mexico, with some areas receiving up to 30 inches, the NHC said.
