That is not what I am seeing from NOAA.
Who knows where it will land. Hurricanes can change course pretty quickly.
That said, this is what I read with an October 24, 5:16 p.m. time.
Hurricane Otis strengthened from tropical storm to a major hurricane in a matter of hours Tuesday as it approached Mexico’s southern Pacific coast where it was forecast to make landfall near the resort of Acapulco early Wednesday.
The U.S. National Hurricane Center said that Otis was about 115 miles (185 kilometers) south-southeast of Acapulco on Tuesday with Category 3 winds of 125 mph (205 kph). It was moving north-northwest at 8 mph (13 kph). The center said Otis would continue strengthening as it approached the coast.
Of course, that might change an hour from now. The NY Times website puts landfall closer to Zihuatanejo.

I was here at the time of Hurricane Pauline that killed hundreds and Hurricane Rick that landed just north of Troncones. I would rather not do that again, but all I can do is prepare and hope for the best.
