Yellow alert issued for heavy rain and hail in Mexico City

Mexico City's Secretariat of Integral Risk Management and Civil Protection has activated a yellow alert across all boroughs due to forecasts of heavy rain, strong winds, and the potential for hail.

The alert is scheduled to remain in effect until 11:00 PM on Wednesday. The meteorological forecast indicates a significant chance of precipitation and gusty winds, prompting authorities to issue warnings to the public.

Residents are strongly advised to take necessary precautions. Recommendations include carrying umbrellas or raincoats, using water for plants, and ensuring that storm drains are clear of garbage and obstructions. Authorities also urge citizens to avoid areas with significant puddles or flooding and to exercise caution while driving, as debris from fallen trees or other objects may be present on roads.

Furthermore, the public is advised to stay away from structures such as walls, trees, power lines, and billboards that appear to be at risk of falling. These measures are intended to minimize risks and ensure public safety during the adverse weather conditions expected throughout the evening.
