Mexico color codes in case of tropical storms or hurricanes |
The Government of the Mexican state of Quintana Roo will issue special weather bulletins and warnings in case of a tropical system approach to our coastline. They use color codes to alert the residents about severe weather conditions. See the color codes below: |
White: No current tropical systems |
Blue: When a tropical system is formed on the Atlantic the bulletins are issued every 24 hours. As the system reaches the Caribbean sea the bulletins are issued every 12 hours. |
Green: When the system is as close as 48 to 72 hours from us the bulletins are issued every 12 hours |
Yellow: If the system is between 36 to 48 hours from the Quintana Roo coastline the bulletins are issued every 6 hours |
Orange: When the system is at 24 hours or less the bulletins are issued every 3 hours and at that point the civil protection commitees are called for emergency alert. |
Red: When the system is located at 18 hours or less the bulletins will be issued as many times as necessary since when we reach that alert stage there are high probabilities of impact. |
