Hurricane Norbert damages more than 1000 homes in Mexico

Hurricane Norbert weakened to tropical storm force off of the Baja California peninsula in Mexico on Sunday after pounding fishing villages and damaging more than 1,000 homes.
Norbert peaked as a Category 3 Hurricane early Saturday with sustained winds of 210 kph (kilometers-per-hour), but by Sunday it was a rapidly weakening tropical storm with winds of 95 kph.
The U.S. National Hurricane Center said the storm was likely to fade as it bends toward the coast of the peninsula by midweek, bringing more heavy rains to the Baja desert and to the U.S. Southwest.
