                           Hurricane Headed to Mexico

   Authorities in Mexico have evacuated thousands of people in Veracruz
   state along the Gulf coast ahead of Hurricane Ingrid, which is expected
   to make landfall Monday.
   Late Saturday, Ingrid had winds of 140 kilometers per hour, with
   additional strengthening forecast before it makes landfall.
   U.S. weather forecasters say Ingrid, the second hurricane of the 2013
   hurricane season, is already dumping considerable rain in the area.
   Forecasters say the storm will likely dump 25 to 40 centimeters of rain
   over a large part of eastern Mexico, though some mountainous areas
   could experience up to 65 centimeters by the time the storm passes
   through the region.
   A hurricane warning is in effect along the Gulf coast from Cabo Rojo to
   La Pesca.
   Meanwhile, on Mexico`s Pacific coast, the U.S. National Hurricane
   Center says Tropical Storm Manuel`s rains could bring life-threatening
   flash floods to portions of the states of Oaxaca and Guerrero.
