That's all from our live page on Hurricane Patricia making landfall in western Mexico.

She touched down as a Category Five hurricane - the strongest ever recorded in the Americas - but has since weakened to a Category Four.

While the eye of the storm missed heavily-populated areas, the city of Manzanillo suffered heavy winds and rains, but seemingly no deadly storm surge.

While Patricia is expected to slow to a tropical storm in the coming hours, she brings the threat of catastrophic flash floods and mudslides.

Hurricane Patricia had already slowed down as it approached land - and now it's slowing down more. It's now a Category Four, rather than a Category Five.

The US National Hurricane Center has just sent an update, external - the maximum winds are now close to 215km/h (130mph) and the storm is moving north-northeast.

It says: "Rapid weakening is forecast, with Patricia expected to become a tropical storm tomorrow morning, and a tropical depression tomorrow afternoon."

The BBC's Mexico correspondent Katy Watson - on her way to the west of the country - writes:

Mexico is used to dealing with big storms during its hurricane season but the strength of this storm is unprecedented in this part of the Pacific.

The worry is that Hurricane Patricia will leave devastation in its wake, with flash floods and landslides a concern in the coming days.

No matter how prepared Mexico is, these hurricanes are unpredictable - and the consequences unknown.

The most powerful footage of Patricia seems to be coming from the port city of Manzanillo, though the worst now appears to have passed.

Alejandro Aguilar posted this video from there soon after the storm made landfall.

Enrique Acevedo, external, a journalist with the Spanish language network Univision, answers the question from Melaque, Mexico.

Sergio Almazán, external, a graduate student studying geology in Mexico, posted this video to Twitter.

Mexican meteorologists said Patricia landed with winds of 265km/h (165mph).

The Weather Channel in the US have a far higher number:

Would this be the highest wind speed ever recorded? Err, no. Far from it.

The World Meteorological Organization says the fastest wind speed ever recorded was 408km/h, external (254mph) - that was during Tropical Cyclone Olivia in Australia in 1996.

More again from Hector Sanchez in the port city of Manzanillo, who had sought shelter but is outdoors again.

He says in another Instagram post uploaded in the last few minutes that the storm appears to be dying down there.

The storm is now expected to take it over mountains where there are only small hamlets - though they could be at risk of landslides and flash floods.

There don't appear to be any reports of storm surge - high sea waters that can often, as with Typhoon Haiyan in the Philippines, cause most damage.

Mexican authorities are expressing relief after Hurricane Patricia made landfall in a relatively unpopulated part of the of Pacific coast. However, Mexican Transportation Secretary Gerardo Ruiz Esparza told the Associated Press that officials have been bracing for the worst and are "not declaring victory" just yet.

The closest population center to the hurricane is Manzanillo and it is outside the range of the storm's hurricane-force winds. 

The Mexican government is urging all those in the affected areas to seek shelter - if anyone in the three states Patricia is affecting needs to know where to go, they can call these numbers.

Meanwhile, the UK Foreign Office's consular assistance team is on 0044 20 7008 1500.

Many American television crews are stationed in Puerto Vallarta, but the current live shots show a scene of relative calm.

The strongest hurricane ever to hit the west coast of Mexico landed further south than anticipated. And that might be good news for the resort town of Puerto Vallarta, where hundreds of tourists who couldn't be evacuated are holed up.

One man who has been busy filming in the last few hours is Hector Sanchez, who lives in Manzanillo.

The BBC has been in contact with him - he and his family are safe, and have barricaded themselves in to their home.

You can have a look at his footage on Instagram here, external - we'll bring you more of it in the coming hours.

Manzanillo is a city of some 110,000 people - and, right now, it looks like it is bearing the brunt of the storm.

Jacob Lozano Salazar, who took this photo in the last 20 minutes, told the BBC: "We're all safe but it's really ugly here on the coast."
