Since the first days of August 2022, the National Meteorological Service (SMN) has been monitoring a low-pressure area that has approached the Mexican coast and which threatens to become Tropical Cyclone Ivette.
Through a map, the SMN has indicated that there is currently a low zone present in Mexico, which has already reached an 80% probability of becoming Tropical Cyclone Ivette in the next two days, and due to the fact that it’s approaching the Mexican coasts, it will affect some regions with intense rains.
The SMN, reported that the low-pressure area is located 560 km south-southwest of Punta San Telmo, Michoacán, and moving towards the west-northwest at 16 m/h, it is expected to become Tropical Cyclone Ivette, producing showers and heavy rains, which will affect the following states this August: Nayarit, Jalisco, Michoacan, Colima, Guerrero, and Oaxaca.
But these are not the only states where intense rainfall will occur, since the Mexican monsoon located in the northwest of the country will cause heavy rains, with possible hailstorms in areas of Sonora, Chihuahua, Sinaloa, and Durango, in addition to the fact that it could cause an increase in the levels of rivers and streams, floods and landslides.
