Mexico has had a lot of hurricanes make land and the population knows that the government response can be no where to be seen, there are folks that lost thire dweling in Mexico City from the last earthquakes and are still living in tents on public parks, so when a hurricane hits well you need to read the weather signs, the hurricane hunters do help by tracking the depressions and today the government does open shelters and gives advisories, and I have been in a hurricane in Isla de Mujeres in the late 70's and travelled in Southern Veracruz and Campeche a day after a hurricane, been in a lot of real big quakes, in Mexico City when the angel in Paseo de la Reforma was on the ground in bits and pieces, the Northridge in Los Angeles, the last two in México, in México you better be ready to go it alone you can not count on anyone from the government at all, in the last quakes the ones that helped more believe it or not were the narcos, they offered more help with food and shelter to the population than the politicos.
