The FCDO has warned travellers the storm is heading towards the eastern coast of Mexico, and could potentially turn into a cyclone over Wednesday and Thursday (19-20 June) when it’s due to make landfall.
Forecasters say that if the winds gather enough force, the cyclone could turn into the first named storm of the Atlantic hurricane season, which would see it christened Tropical Storm Alberto.
The US National Hurricane Centre and the Mexican met office believe the storm will impact large parts of eastern Mexico, including the states of Yucatan, Veracruz and Oaxaca, as well as southern Texas.
