Hurricane Otis, which killed more than two dozen people in southern Mexico this week, exemplified a phenomenon that meteorologists fear will become more and more common: a severe hurricane that arrives with little warning or time to prepare. Judson Jones, who covers natural disasters for The Times, explains why Hurricane Otis packed such an unexpected punch. Guest: Judson Jones, who covers natural disasters and Earth’s changing climate for The New York Times. Background reading: - On Tuesday morning, few meteorologists were talking about Otis.
