Huge waves have caused at least three deaths and major damage to hundreds of homes and businesses, and it all started with a storm off New Zealand. The massive groundswell on the Pacific coast resulted in alerts being issued from Jalisco to Chiapas.

Terrific reporting!

There's a video on my Facebook page showing a huge wave washing over the pier area while the fishing tournament was under way. Just click on the Facebook link at the bottom of this page to see it.
