At least 58 people are feared missing after their homes were buried in a mudslide caused by Hurricane Manuel in Mexico.
A further 80 have been killed in the two hurricanes which converged on Mexico this week.
Winds of 120 kilometres an hour have caused flash floods and landslides. The storms damaged bridges, caused rivers to overflow and flooded half of the resort of Acapulco, stranding tens of thousands of tourists.
Authorities say the death toll has risen to 80 across 12 of 32 states, but the body count could rise after the grim discovery of a huge mudslide overnight.

More than 5,000 people have been flown out since Tuesday and officials hope to have evacuated 15,000 by today.
Hurricane Manuel hit Mexico's west coast on Sunday while Hurricane Ingrid battered its north eastern gulf. It's the first time since 1958 that two powerful storms hit Mexico within 24 hours.
They arrived just a few weeks after Tropical Storm Ernesto hit Mexico's gulf coast in early August.
Hurricane Manuel is now approaching north-western Mexico and threatens more destruction, the Miami-based US National Hurricane Centre said.
