As Mexico grapples with a heat alert in its northern states, the Pacific Coast is being pounded by heavy rainfall from monsoon conditions. Low-pressure troughs and Tropical Wave 37 have been baking large portions of the country, with temperatures soaring above 45°C (113°F) in parts of Baja California and Sonora. The Mexican monsoon has drenched much of the rest of the nation, with rainfall reaching up to 150 millimeters in Sinaloa, Nayarit, Jalisco and Colima through Thursday.
The National Meteorological Service warns residents to stay hydrated and avoid prolonged sun exposure while temperatures are forecast to climb even higher on Friday. Meanwhile, Tropical Wave 38, arriving from the east, has increased the likelihood of heavy rain in regions along the Gulf Coast, the Yucatán Peninsula, and southeastern Mexico through Sunday.
