Heavy rainfall, strong winds, and localized flooding are concerns for eastern Mexico, particularly with the expectation of up to 45 mph winds at landfall.

Tropical Storm Barry, the second named storm of this year's Atlantic hurricane season, was located on the country's southeast coast, about 50 miles east-southeast of Tuxpan, Mexico and about 130 miles southeast of Tampico, Mexico, according to the U.S. National Hurricane Center in Miami.

Tropical storms have spun up on both sides of Mexico, with the most serious threat coming from flooding rains along the country’s eastern coastline facing the Bay of Campeche, the US National Hurricane Center said.
