Hurricane Polo Reaches Category 3 With 125 mph Winds as Baja Braces

Two simultaneous eastern Pacific hurricanes are testing coastal resilience at the peak of the 2026 season. Category 3 Hurricane Polo — with 125 mph sustained winds — is set to strike Baja California on Monday, while 105 mph Hurricane Nolo leaves Hawaii under flash-flood and high-surf advisories. For climate and energy planners, the dual threat underscores rising exposure of coastal infrastructure to overlapping extreme-weather events.
