Mexico has experienced significant weather disruptions involving heavy rains, thunderstorms, and heatwaves. Initially, authorities in Coahuila, Sonora, and Guerrero issued warnings for intense precipitation, potential hail, and strong winds, with Sonora facing temperatures up to 41 degrees Celsius.

These meteorological conditions later impacted transportation infrastructure, leading to the temporary suspension of takeoffs and landings at Mexico City International Airport (AICM) due to severe thunderstorms and heavy rain. Airport administration conducted runway and taxiway inspections to ensure safety before resuming operations.
