Tropical Storm Trudy made landfall Saturday in southwestern Mexico and will drench that region with torrential rain, but it is not forecast to strengthen to hurricane status, the National Meteorological Service (SMN) said.
In its most recent bulletin at 10:00 a.m., the SMN said the center of the storm was located over land, 120 kilometers (74 miles) east-northeast of the Pacific resort city of Acapulco and 45 kilometers (28 miles) south-southwest of Tlapa, Guerrero.
At that time, the tropical storm was packing maximum sustained winds of 75 kph (46 mph) with higher gusts and was moving to the north at 7 kph (4 mph).
Trudy will bring torrential rain to parts of the southern states of Guerrero and Oaxaca and heavy rain to portions of the states of Veracruz, Mexico, Chiapas, Morelos, Tabasco, Puebla and Hidalgo, the bulletin said.

That is bad news!
On the other hand, isn't rain better than a snowstorm?
keep calm and prepare for the "dia de los muertos".
