cold front

Hurricane Rachel, together with Cold Front 1, is shaping weather conditions across Mexico this Saturday. El Economista reports that several states will see the heaviest rainfall, prompting residents to monitor forecasts for flooding and storms. Mexicans are searching for updates on which regions will be most affected by the combined weather systems.

Rain is forecast across much of Mexico on 2 October, with Mexico City and surrounding areas expecting more than 25 millimetres of rainfall and falling temperatures, alongside strong storms continuing through Friday. The season's first cold front has reached the country, and warnings are in place for intense rain, thunderstorms and possible waterspouts on the coasts of Jalisco and in Yucatan, with further wet weather forecast for Tamaulipas and Cabo San Lucas.

Weather services across Germany are warning of a sharp turn in the autumn conditions. The last warm day in the west is being reported, with a cold front set to sweep away the late-summer warmth, bringing rain and strong winds. Forecasts mention a plunge in temperatures with possible frost, and one long-range calendar points to a major rainy phase in October.
