Tropical Storm Dolores weakens over Mexico

Tropical Storm Dolores weakened after making landfall on Saturday on Mexico's Pacific coast, near the borders between the states of Michoacán and Colima, just as it was about to become a hurricane.

According to the U.S. National Hurricane Center, the intensity of its winds dropped from 110 km/h on Saturday morning to 55 km/h by the evening, but heavy rains were still forecast, as well as mountain landslides in southwestern and west-central Mexico. Mexican authorities reported no major damage, only some overflowed rivers, fallen trees and flooding, but remained on alert especially for the danger of landslides.
