Mexico may expect rainfall and cooler temperatures in some areas this week, according to the National Meteorological Service (SMN).
The SMN has warned that rainfall may lead to reduced visibility, landslides and flooding of rivers and streams. It urged residents to follow the recommendations of Civil Protection authorities as strong winds may knock down trees and advertisements.

Rain forecast by state
Weather forecasts predict that a low-pressure system is moving from the Caribbean toward Central America, passing through the southern part of the Yucatán Peninsula, the Gulf of Mexico and the Isthmus of Tehuantepec. This system, in interaction with a cold front, will cause rainfall this week in several states:
Intense rainfall (75 to 150 mm): Chiapas.
Very heavy rainfall (50 to 75 mm): Campeche, Tabasco and Yucatán.
Heavy rainfall (25 to 50 mm): Oaxaca, Quintana Roo and Veracruz.
Meanwhile, another low-pressure channel extending over the north, west and center of the country, coupled with the entry of humidity from the Pacific Ocean, will cause rains in the following states:
