Overview

• Conagua and the National Weather Service (SMN) report Raymond has weakened to a tropical depression and was located within tens of kilometers of Cabo San Lucas on Saturday evening, with landfall in southern Baja California Sur imminent.
• Guidance from SMN points to the system crossing into the Gulf of California and then Sonora, where rainfall totals could reach 150–250 mm on Sunday; intense rain is also forecast for parts of Chihuahua, Sinaloa, Durango, Nayarit and Baja California Sur.
• Winds of 45–55 km/h with gusts up to 75 km/h and seas of 2.5–3.5 meters are expected on segments of the Pacific coast and the Gulf of California, with authorities cautioning about dangerous surf and maritime conditions.
• The CNPC urged nationwide precautions as Raymond’s moisture combines with other systems, while federal and state governments activated shelters and deployments, including 21 shelters in Los Cabos and a reported 6,200 responders pre‑positioned in Sonora.
• Preliminary local reports cited flooding, landslides and infrastructure damage in several states linked to recent storms, and officials highlighted that Raymond’s effects could trigger additional flash floods and road closures.
