* Gulf coast of Mexico from Boca de Catan southward to Tecolutla
A Tropical Storm Warning means that tropical storm conditions are
expected somewhere within the warning area within 36 hours.
At 700 PM CDT (0000 UTC), the center of Tropical Depression Two was
located near latitude 19.5 North, longitude 94.7 West. The
depression is moving toward the west-northwest near 7 mph (11 km/h)

the following track the depression is expected to make landfall
along the Mexico coast on Sunday night and move further inland on
Monday.
Maximum sustained winds are near 30 mph (45 km/h) with higher
gusts. Some intensification is forecast over the next day or so, and
the depression is forecast to become a tropical storm before
reaching the coast of Mexico.

Beryl last year was deadly in late June/July
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hurricane_Beryl
The second named storm, first hurricane, first major hurricane, and first of two Category 5 hurricanes of the 2024 Atlantic hurricane season, the system broke many meteorological records, primarily for formation and intensity. Beryl was one of only two Atlantic hurricanes to reach Category 5 hurricane status in July, along with Emily in 2005. Beryl was the earliest-forming Category 5 hurricane on record in the Atlantic Ocean, and the strongest hurricane to develop within the Main Development Region (MDR) of the Atlantic before the month of July.
