Mexico Warns of Heavy Rains in Southeast Xinhua go to original June 18, 2010
Mexico's National Meteorological Service (SMN) warned on Thursday that most of the country's southern and eastern parts could suffer heavy rains and high seas due to Tropical Depression 2-E and tropical wave number 6.
Two low pressure weather systems, which represent the lowest rungs of the hurricane scale, will bring heavy rains to Guatemala, Chiapas in southern Mexico and Veracruz in the Gulf of Mexico.
Seven of the nine areas monitored by the SMN will suffer storms or high winds, according to a statement published on the SMN's website.
Since Guatemala was badly hit by Tropical Storm Agatha, which killed 156 people in the country, Guatemala's National Disaster Reduction System said it is monitoring the most vulnerable areas.
