TAMPICO, Mexico — Tropical Storm Alberto rumbled toward northeast Mexico early Thursday as the first named storm of the season, carrying heavy rains that left three people dead but also brought hope to a region suffering under a prolonged, severe drought.
“The speeds are not such as to consider it a risk,” said Tamaulipas state Secretary of Hydrological Resources Raúl Quiroga Álvarez during a news conference late Wednesday. Instead, he suggested people greet Alberto happily. “This is what we’ve been for for eight years in all of Tamaulipas.”Much of Mexico has been suffering under severe drought, with northern Mexico especially hard hit.
Late Wednesday, Alberto was located about 40 miles east of Tampico, Mexico, and about 250 miles south-southeast of Brownsville, Texas, with maximum sustained winds of 50 mph , according to the U.S. National Hurricane Center. The storm was moving west at 13 miles per hour.CLICK HERE for the San Antonio forecast...
