By late Tuesday, Lidia will spread heavy rain and gusty winds across parts of western Mexico.
WINTER FORECAST: Several major US cities expected to pick up more snow this season than last year.As Lidia draws closer to the Mexican coastline, high seas have already created rough surf and strong rip currents. By Tuesday night, drenching rain and gusty winds will spread across the Mexican states of Durango, Sinaloa, Nayarit and Jalisco.According to a new report from UNICEF, around 20,000 children are displaced from their homes every single day due to climate-driven disasters around the world.
Gusty winds will arrive across parts of west-central Mexico beginning Tuesday night. Peak wind gusts can range from 40-60 mph across the states of Durango, Sinaloa, Nayarit, Zacatecas and Jalisco with the AccuWeather Local StormMax™ of 85 mph . As the air is forced upwards and cools over the higher terrain, water vapor condenses and a higher concentration of rainfall can occur along the windward side of the mountains.
"When tropical systems interact with orographic features, the mountains can have a similar effect of squeezing water out of a sponge. As a result, flooding issues can be enhanced," explained AccuWeather Meteorologist Alex DaSilva.
