Tropical Storm Barry has formed in the Bay of Campeche and is expected to make landfall on the east coast of Mexico tonight.
Barry is the second named storm of the season and currently has winds of 40 mph. The storm’s development in the Bay of Campeche marks the second time this season that a tropical system has reached named status.
