Overview
- The Navy kept the Plan Marina active Monday across Sinaloa, Sonora, Baja California and Baja California Sur to monitor the Pacific coast and close some ports as a precaution.
- Local authorities in Ensenada opened two gymnasium shelters and carried out staged evacuations that rose from an initial 86 people to a reported 147 and then to 162 people as assessments continued.
- Rescue teams treated six people for minor injuries and rescued ten animals, with Maneadero shelter spaces prepared to accept pets through support from the local canine and feline care center.
- Fire rescue crews encountered live, informal electrical connections known locally as “diablitos,” which caused shocks and prompted requests to the federal power utility to suspend electricity so teams could work safely.
- Operations have involved municipal and state Protección Civil, the Army, National Guard, Navy, firefighters, Red Cross and volunteer groups, and the coordinated response reflects heightened scrutiny of local preparedness after deadly October storms.
