The formation of tropical storm "Carlotta" in the Pacific Ocean near the Mexican coasts has captured the attention of meteorologists and authorities, as it is expected to bring severe weather conditions to several regions of the country. Since the morning, the atmosphere has been characterized by a cool dawn in the State of Mexico, with partially cloudy skies and some isolated rain showers that have begun to affect the Mexico Valley. This climatic phenomenon adds to a pattern of instability that has prevailed in the national territory. This afternoon presents a more complicated picture, as an increase in rainfall activity is expected. In Mexico City, strong localized rains are imminent, while in the State of Mexico very heavy rains are forecasted, accompanied by thunderstorms and the possibility of hail, which could lead to complications in transit and mobility for citizens. Authorities recommend exercising caution due to these conditions that could cause flooding and landslides in various areas. In the Baja California Peninsula, the meteorological situation is equally concerning, with a temperate morning environment that will transform into a hot afternoon. Isolated rain showers and the possibility of thunderstorms are expected, which could affect local communities. Winds blowing from the northwest will also intensify, generating gusts that could reach 60 km/h, putting outdoor activities at risk. The Northern Pacific is not immune to this climatic imbalance, as the region will experience an environment that varies between temperate and hot. Very heavy rains are also expected here, especially in Sonora and Sinaloa, with a high risk of flooding and landslides. Civil protection authorities are calling on citizens to stay informed about the development of storm "Carlotta" and its effects on the region. In the Central Pacific, the situation becomes critical with very heavy localized rains in states such as Nayarit and Jalisco. Conditions will also be favorable for hail and thunderstorms, representing a high risk for local communities that could face flooding and inundation. Winds in this area will also increase, reaching significant gusts that could create dangerous conditions. The Southern Pacific, particularly in Guerrero, Oaxaca, and Chiapas, will be affected by intense rains, which could lead to the overflowing of rivers and streams. The combination of mountainous terrain with precipitation may generate landslides and additional risks for the population. Authorities are on alert and have begun to implement preventive measures to mitigate the impact of these phenomena. In the Gulf of Mexico, a warm environment will be experienced, but intense localized rains, especially in Veracruz and Tabasco, have raised concerns about rising water levels in rivers and streams. These conditions require special attention, as flooding can affect not only homes but also transportation infrastructure and public services. The Yucatán Peninsula will also face variable weather, with cloudy skies and the possibility of showers. Meteorological authorities warn of the risk of thunderstorms in some states, which could complicate the daily activities of the region's inhabitants. It is vital to stay alert to weather reports and follow the recommendations of authorities. The Northern Plateau and Central Plateau will also be affected by adverse weather conditions, with very heavy rains in states such as Chihuahua and Durango. Thunderstorms and hail are a constant concern in these regions, where the risk of flooding and landslides increases significantly. The imminent arrival of "Carlotta" highlights the importance of preparedness for natural disasters. Authorities urge the population to stay informed, follow safety recommendations, and be attentive to possible evacuations in high-risk areas. Given climate change and the intensification of meteorological phenomena, prevention and community resilience are more crucial than ever.
