| Tropical Storm Barry |
Tropical Storm Barry has made landfall in Mexico, threatening deadly flash floods and mudslides as it moves inland.
The U.S. National Hurricane Center in Miami says Barry made landfall
Thursday morning. It was forecast to continue moving west over land for
the next day or so before weakening and losing its tropical
characteristics.
The second tropical storm of the Atlantic season had sustained winds at about 40 mph (65 kph) late Thursday morning. It was moving west at about 5 mph (7 kph).
A tropical storm warning was in effect from Punta El Lagarto to Tuxpan, in Veracruz state. However, the major concern was heavy rain that could create floods and mudslides, especially in mountain areas.
