He also pointed out that although the storm is not heading towards the Mexican coasts, it will be important to observe its behavior in the coming hours.

“We have Tropical Storm Cristina; We have a low-pressure channel extended in the highlands, rather this is a very powerful band that broke off from Cristina, advancing through southern Sinaloa. “

“As long as the system is there in the Pacific, parallel to the coast, it could continue (raining),” he said.
