Tropical Storm Boris: impact and preventive measures

Tropical Depression Two-E became Tropical Storm “Boris” during the early hours of this Monday, reported the National Meteorological Service (SMN). At 3:00 a.m., its center was located about 135 kilometers southeast of Acapulco and 80 km southwest of Punta Maldonado, Guerrero.

The system has maximum sustained winds of 65 km/h and gusts of up to 85 km/h. Its circulation will cause torrential rains of 150 to 250 mm in the west and coast of Guerrero. Intense rainfall is also expected in Michoacán and southwest Oaxaca, as well as very heavy rains in Jalisco and Colima.

The winds will reach gusts of 70 to 90 km/h on the coasts of Guerrero and western Oaxaca. In the rest of the entities mentioned, the gusts will be 50 to 70 km/h. The waves will be significant: 4 to 5 meters high in Guerrero and western Oaxaca, and 3 to 4 meters in Jalisco, Colima and Michoacán.

Faced with this scenario, authorities warn about the risk of landslides, overflows and floods. The prevention zone for tropical storm winds remains active from Lagunas de Chacahua, Oaxaca, to Técpan de Galeana, Guerrero.

The SMN points out that Boris will interact with a trough at medium and high levels of the atmosphere, which will maintain a rainy season in much of the country. Intense to torrential accumulations are expected in Jalisco, Colima, Michoacán, Guerrero, Oaxaca, Chiapas, Veracruz, Puebla, San Luis Potosí and Tamaulipas. In the northeast, center, south and southeast, including the Valley of Mexico, the rains will be heavy to very heavy.

Tropical wave number 5, combined with humidity, will generate heavy rains in the Yucatan Peninsula. Despite the rainfall, the hot environment will persist in Sonora, Chihuahua, Durango, Sinaloa, Nayarit and other entities.

Civil Protection recommends taking extreme precautions, avoiding crossing rivers or flooded roads, and staying informed through official sources.

Seizure of 48 thousand cans of illegal beer in Tabasco

Seizure of 48 thousand cans of beer without documentation on the Raudales-Malpaso highway.

Federal and state security elements seized a tractor-trailer with approximately 48 thousand cans of beer of dubious origin in Tabasco. The driver was placed at the disposal of the authorities.

The operation occurred on the Raudales-Malpaso highway, in the municipality of Huimanguillo. The security forces acted following an anonymous complaint, which allowed strategic investigation work to begin.

At the scene they stopped an International tractor-trailer coupled to a dry box. During the inspection, they located two thousand plates of beer of various brands.

Due to the fact that the driver did not present the required documentation to prove the legal possession and transportation of the product, he was detained.

The detainee, the unit and the shipment were at the disposal of the Public Ministry of the Federation. An investigation folder will be opened to determine responsibilities.

The Attorney General’s Office highlighted the importance of the exchange of operational intelligence to prevent the circulation of illegal merchandise on the country’s roads.

After the crime, Rufino González stated that Delsi had taken his own life. However, the family called for a thorough investigation. “We want justice for Delsi,” “that they investigate well because his family knew about the facts,” have been some of the demands from family members and community authorities. The victim was a mother of two minors, originally from San Miguel Cuevas.

Rufino González was arrested this weekend by elements of the State Investigation Agency and placed at the disposal of the Public Ministry.
