Kasno sinoć Jota je oslabila na kategoriju tropske oluje, ali su meteorolozi upozorili na obilne kiše i nove poplave i klizišta.
Oluja je prošla oko 40 kilometara jugozapadno od Tegusigalpe, glavnog grada Hondurasa.
Oluja se kretala zapadno, brzinom od 19 kilometara na čas.
U Hondurasu su počele obavezne evakuacije pre vikenda i cela zemlja je bila u pripravnosti.
U Nikaragvi je evakuacija sprovedena iz nižih oblasti na severoistoku zemlje.

Hurricane Iota rapidly strengthened into a Category 5 storm that is likely to bring catastrophic damage to the same part of Central America already battered by a powerful Hurricane Eta less than two weeks ago.
