The storm, which has caused flooding in San Rafael and led to temporary closures at the Los Cabos port, continues under surveillance, with firefighters issuing recommendations to protect the population. Although it is close, Baja California Sur is not in direct danger, but the situation is a concern for the area's residents.

As part of precautionary measures, the Los Cabos government has asked the population to maintain a cautious attitude and follow the firefighters' instructions. As it approaches next week, the situation could change, so residents are alert and ready for any contingency.
