Mexico issues alert ahead of hurricanes
Mexican authorities have declared a state of alert due to the approach of three hurricanes and tropical storms toward the country, two of which are in the Pacific Ocean and one in the Gulf of Mexico. It is expected that these weather phenomena will intensify and impact several coastal states between Saturday and Monday. The tropical depression south of Oaxaca's coasts is forecast to become a Category 1 hurricane with wind speeds reaching up to 120 kilometers per hour. Meanwhile, Hurricane Ravel may strengthen to a Category 2 near the coasts of Jalisco, with the potential for storms and winds exceeding 120 kilometers per hour to affect coastal states, especially Nayarit and Sinaloa. These developments follow last week’s Category 3 hurricane in the Mexican Pacific, with forecasts predicting that during the 2026 season, between 18 and 21 hurricanes and tropical storms will form, including four to five that are strong.
