Patricia, the strongest hurricane ever recorded in the Americas, hits Mexico's Pacific coast

• Category 5 storm - the strongest ever in the Western Hemisphere
• Patricia downgraded from Category 5 to category 4
• 165mph winds strike south-western Mexico
• Storm compared to Typhoon Haiyan, which killed 6,300 in 2013
• Thousand evacuated ahead of landfall on Friday night

Hurricane Patricia, the record-breaking category 5 hurricane, rumbled across western Mexico early on Saturday, uprooting trees and triggering some landslides but causing less damage than feared for such a massive storm, officials said.
