Fury of Nadine: Tropical Storm Hits Belize and Yucatan
Tropical Storm Nadine brought heavy rain and strong winds to Belize and the Yucatan Peninsula, with further movement into Guatemala and southeastern Mexico. The storm is expected to cause significant rainfall and potential flooding in low-lying areas, affecting both mainland and coastal tourist spots before dissipating.
Tropical Storm Nadine has descended upon Belize and the Yucatan Peninsula with intensity, delivering heavy rain and forceful winds. The National Hurricane Center predicts the tempest will soon advance into northern Guatemala and southeastern Mexico.
The formidable storm initiated its assault on Belize late Friday, generating up to two inches of rainfall, slated to increase dramatically in certain areas over the subsequent days. Belize's chief meteorologist Ronald Gordon confirmed the extent of the deluge in communication with Reuters.
Tourist locales such as San Pedro and Ambergris Caye brace for potential disruption. Nadine's current path suggests it will weaken by Saturday, with an expected dissipation over southern Mexico by late Sunday, though not without leaving substantial precipitation in its wake.
