Weather Alert in Mexico: New Tropical Cyclone Threatens Heavy Rains Across Over 20 States
Monterrey, Nuevo León – June 15, 2025
Residents in Mexico stay alert. Weather experts warn of a tropical cyclone that brings heavy rain and rising moisture. The storm can cause floods and unsafe scenes. The rain, however, helps local forests and fills water bodies.
Forecast Overview: Abundant Rainfall Expected
The week starts with signs from Tropical Storm Dalila. It lies over 600 kilometers from the coast of Jalisco. Dalila sends moisture into western, central, and southern Mexico. A weak tropical wave nears these regions with little force.
The Mexican Monsoon adds rain along the Sierra Madre Occidental. Moist air moves from the high lands to the low areas. A disturbance, marked as 94E, stays south of El Salvador and Guatemala and moves along the coast toward the Gulf of Tehuantepec midweek. It may grow into a tropical cyclone known as Tropical Storm Erick, which could affect Oaxaca and nearby regions.
Detailed Rain Forecast for the Week
Many states face heavy rain. Tabasco, Chiapas, Oaxaca, Veracruz, San Luis Potosí, Puebla, Tlaxcala, Guerrero, and more see high warning levels. Forecasts for Monday show 70 to 150 millimeters in parts like Veracruz, Oaxaca, and Chiapas while other areas may receive between 30 and 70 millimeters.
Rain shifts during the week. Tuesday shows similar weather with a little less rain. By Wednesday, new systems bring rain over central Mexico. Rainfall may reach 50 to 100 millimeters. In high and coastal parts of the Pacific, especially near the Isthmus of Tehuantepec, totals of 150 to 200 millimeters are possible.
Increasing Risk by the Weekend
Uncertainty grows as the week nears its end. Whether the storm hits Oaxaca or the Gulf disturbance moves differently, heavy rain is likely in the northeast. In central and southern Mexico, rain keeps coming.
From Thursday to Sunday, areas like Nuevo León, Tamaulipas, and Veracruz may see over 200 millimeters.
Temperature Forecast and Regional Impact
The north stays hot. Temperatures in Baja California, Baja California Sur, and Sonora reach 35 to 45 degrees Celsius. Regions with rain cool down. In the northeast and Gulf areas, temperatures fall to between 26 and 34 degrees Celsius. The Altiplano sees drops between 15 and 25 degrees Celsius, and southern states from Nayarit to Chiapas hold mild weather around 25 to 32 degrees Celsius.
Conclusion
The new tropical cyclone and its weather systems bring risks of floods and dangerous scenes. Local leaders ask people to check weather reports and act with care as the storm comes.
