Four low pressure areas are currently heading towards Mexico, one of which could develop into Cyclone John, originating from the Caribbean Sea. The National Weather Service (NWS) has made projections regarding these weather phenomena.

The NWS has issued an alert via Conagua's social network about the presence of these four low pressure areas. One of these areas is of particular concern due to its potential impact on Mexican territory.

The area closest to Mexico has a 60% probability of developing into a cyclone, potentially becoming Cyclone John. The NWS reports that it is situated northwest of the Caribbean Sea and the Gulf of Mexico. It is expected to maintain this level of cyclonic development potential over the next seven days.

The other three areas have lower chances of developing into cyclones. Two of them have a 10% probability of cyclonic development over the next 48 hours and the following week. One is located 3,250 km east-northeast of Quintana Roo's coast, moving northwest at a speed of 8 km/h.

The second is situated 4,590 km east-northeast of Quintana Roo's coasts and is also moving slowly northwest. The third area, located east of the Atlantic, is under close watch by the NWS due to its 30% chance of cyclonic development in the next week.

Over in the Pacific Ocean, there is a low pressure area with a 50% chance of developing into a cyclone over the next week, according to the NWS. This area is located southwest of Jalisco and Colima, although the exact distance has not been specified.
