The arrival of Hurricane "Carlotta" in the Pacific Ocean has generated a series of alerts in various states across the country, particularly in those along the Gulf of Mexico coast. According to the National Water Commission (Conagua) and the National Meteorological Service (SMN), very heavy rains are expected in Tabasco and Veracruz, with accumulations ranging from 50 to 75 mm. This situation has led authorities to issue recommendations for citizens to remain vigilant for possible landslides and flooding. Hurricane "Carlotta," which has intensified to Category 1 on the Saffir-Simpson scale, is currently located 660 kilometers southwest of Cabo San Lucas. With maximum winds of 110 km/h and gusts that could reach up to 140 km/h, its trajectory moving west-northwest at 19 km/h is being closely monitored. This meteorological phenomenon not only affects Baja California Sur but also has repercussions throughout the rest of the country, particularly in southern Veracruz. The warning regarding precipitation in Tabasco and Veracruz is critical, as the weather conditions could lead to river and stream overflows. Experts emphasize that it is vital for the population to remain alert to the possibility of landslides in mountainous areas and rising water levels, which could pose a risk to communities near bodies of water. On the other hand, the weather forecast for the Gulf of Mexico states anticipates a morning environment that will vary from mild to cool, with cloudy skies in southern Veracruz. In the afternoon, thunderstorms are expected in areas with rain, which could complicate the situation in some localities already at risk due to increased precipitation. The situation is further complicated by the recent formation of potential Tropical Cyclone Four near the Island of Cuba. Although this system does not pose an immediate danger to Mexico due to its distant trajectory, its emergence in the context of Hurricane "Carlotta" highlights the need for the population to remain informed and prepared for any eventuality. It is important to note that while Hurricane "Carlotta" increases the probability of rain in Veracruz, it is currently not considered a direct risk to the people of Veracruz. However, previous experiences with similar phenomena have shown that prevention and planning are essential to mitigate the adverse effects of weather. The importance of maintaining constant communication with authorities and following the recommendations from the SMN cannot be underestimated. Intense rainfall not only affects infrastructure but can also lead to accidents and damage to public health. Therefore, citizens must stay attentive to weather reports and alerts that may be issued in the coming days. In this context, cooperation between the population and local authorities becomes essential. Helping the most vulnerable and ensuring that everyone has access to the appropriate information is key to minimizing the risks associated with such natural phenomena. Communities must be prepared to act together in emergency situations. Finally, it is crucial to remember that nature always presents unexpected challenges. The hurricane season serves as a constant reminder of the need to be prepared and the importance of community resilience. Staying informed and acting with caution can make the difference between chaos and safety in times of crisis, such as the one that Hurricane "Carlotta" could represent.
