MIAMI — Tropical Storm Barry formed Sunday near Mexico’s southeast coast and is expected to drench the region for several days.

The center of the storm was positioned roughly 90 miles (140 kilometers) to the east-southeast of Tuxpan, Mexico, and approximately 165 miles (around 265 kilometers) southeast of Tampico, Mexico, as reported by the U.S. National Hurricane Center located in Miami.

It had maximum sustained winds of 40 mph (65 kph) and was moving northwest at 6 mph (9 kph).

A tropical storm warning is in effect for the coast of Mexico from Boca de Catan southward to Tecolutla.

It’s anticipated that the storm will gain a bit more intensity prior to reaching the southeastern coast of Mexico. However, the storm is expected to weaken rapidly once it moves inland.

Meteorologists predict that the storm may drop between three to six inches (eight to 15 centimeters) of rainfall, with some areas experiencing isolated totals of up to 10 inches (25 centimeters) across regions of Veracruz, San Luis Potosi, and Tamaulipas through Monday.

Meanwhile, Tropical Storm Flossie formed off Mexico’s southwest coast. It was located about 240 miles (390 kilometers) south of Acapulco and was moving west at 9 mph (15 kph) with maximum sustained winds of 40 mph (65 kph).

A tropical storm watch was in effected for Mexico’s southwest coast from Zihuatanejo to Cabo Corrientes.

Flossie is expected to become a hurricane on Monday or Tuesday, but remains in open waters just west of Mexico.

Forecasters said the storm could dump three to six inches (eight to 15 centimeters) of rain with an isolated maximum total of 10 inches (25 centimeters) across parts of Oaxaca, Guerrero, Michoacán, Colima, and Jalisco through early next week.
