 From the WorldRadio Online Newsroom...

Hurricane Karl is coming onshore in Mexico today as a Category 3 
hurricane, packing top winds of 120 miles per hour. The Mexican 
Emergency Net is operating on 7065 kHz. All stations not involved in 
passing hurricane-related traffic are requested to keep that 
frequency clear, according to IARU Caribbean area Emergency 
Coordinator Arnie Coro, CO2KK.

In addition, WX4NHC at the National Hurricane Center announced 
yesterday that it would be monitoring HF and Echolink as the storm 
progressed. The HF frequency was not included. WX4NHC primarily 
monitors the Hurricane Watch Net frequency of 14.325 MHz +/- QRM. As 
of 1645 UTC today (17 Sept), however, the HWN was not active and it 
was not clear whether WX4NHC was still monitoring.
