Hurricanes in Mexico

June has arrived and, with it, considerably warmer temperatures in this part of the world.   The rainy season begins in May and places like Mexico City are already experiencing monsoon rains some evenings, which cool the day down and, in the case of the country’s capital, also freshen-up the air.

As we noted on this blog post last year, some media channels use the hurricane season as an opportunity to publish articles featuring sensational story-writing although in reality, people who live near hurricane affected areas are quite used to dealing with heavy storms and hurricane weather.

Storms, tropical storms and hurricanes are regular occurences every summer in Mexico.   Some hurricanes can be quite fierce, and may cause a significant amount of damage.   However, with satellite technology and advanced storm-tracking systems, people in affected areas can be warned and measures implemented to mitigate any damage and avoid casualties when a strong storm or hurricane is imminent.

Mexico’s rainy season lasts from May to October each year; tropical storms and hurricanes can brew-up during the same time frame, although July through late September is when most hurricane activity is reported; which coincides with the hottest months of the year.
