As Tropical Storm Arlene steadily chugged toward the east-central coast of Mexico Wednesday, Mexican authorities issued a hurricane watch that stretches from the country's eastern municipality of Tuxpan northward to La Cruz, the National Hurricane Center reported.
Arlene - the first named storm of the 2011 Atlantic hurricane season - is moving at about 8 mph, packing sustained winds of 50 mph.
It is expected to make landfall early Thursday very near hurricane strength.
Arlene is also expected to produce 4- to 8-inches of rain in some areas. Meteorologists say isolated rainfall amounts of 15 inches over mountainous terrain could cause life-threatening flash floods and mud slides.
FULL STORY
i hope the zetas will be ok..
What stupid Mexico outta do, is issue a I CAN'T DEFEND MY PEOPLE FROM EXTORTION OR KIDAPPINGS warning.
I would be embarased to be kidnapped for a $300 ransom.
300 bucks is a lot of pesos though. Mexican kidnappers need to study how American bondsmen go about milking the most out of it.
Yeah the bondsmen have to play a some games to get the bail set at just the right price, and the judges have been known to get a nice little something... something out of it to.
Judges? Noooo. Really?
@CSnSC: Somebody like you should fetch in an easy $2 Million for ransom.
Beeeee, varwee varwee carefoe or I'll blast ya outta sky... Philoop , He He
Y'all crack me up! Cesar I'm with ya bro! I'm afraid my family would make the kidnappers pay them. "Yeah, we'll take her off your hands, but it's gonna cost ya!" Every1 is so broke. Just kidding, they love me (but $ is a close 2nd, right now.). I am p.o.'ed that the storm wont make it to Texas. We are growing scales, it's so dry & hot. Any1 know a good rain dance? Perry the Guv'nah prayed for rain, didn't work. I'll put my trust in the Natives with ancient wisdom!!
Isn't rain dance the name of a car wax?
My uncle usta say if ya shot an arrow into the sky itd rain. But he also usta tell us not to step on spiders for the same reason.
Lol raven my mom says the same thing about the spiders but she still kills them... Anyway they might as well just hang up a sign saying WE WILL NOT PROTECT YOU IF A DRUG CARTEL IS FIRING AT YOU Tiene una buena dia!
