CBS News reported that the fast-moving Category 5 storm avoided direct hits on the resort city of Puerto Vallarta and major port city of Manzanillo. There were reports of flooding and landslides, but there were no reports of fatalities or major damage."All the streets here in town are full of downed trees all over the place," an eyewitness from the coastal resort town Hotel Barra de Navidad told CBS. "You have to make your way around all the downed telephone poles, the power lines, the trees."Tourists in Puerto Vallarta braced for the worst, but were surprised how calm things stayed throughout the storm. "It's amazing. It went from the worst in history to just some heavy rain," a woman from Detroit said.In a taped address on Friday, President Enrique Peña Nieto told residents "damages have been minor to those corresponding to a hurricane of this magnitude," but, "it is very important that the population stays in the shelters. The security forces will be patrolling to protect their homes. I repeat, we still can't let our guard down."The U.S. National Weather Service reports that the remnants of Patricia will cause bouts of heavy rain throughout Texas, causing flash flood warnings to be in effect through Sunday morning for Dallas-Fort Worth, Austin, and San Antonio. A coastal flood warning is also in effect through 7 p.m. Sunday for the city of Houston."The Astros are done playing, the Texans are out of town, and the Rockets are still in the preseason," Houston Mayor Annise Parker said. "There's no reason to go anywhere. It's a great weekend to have a movie night with the kids, game night, family night, and just stay off the roads."Heavy rains in central Texas have already resulted in local area law enforcement receiving calls of people trapped in cars, according to the Austin Statesman . Officials in Texas are urging drivers to stay off the road, if at all possible.Overnight, the city of Corsicana, which is about 50 miles south of Dallas, was hit with an estimated 16 inches of rain, causing a freight train to derail early this morning. The two crew members were able to swim to safety and no one else was hurt.
