Tropical Storm Raymond (2025)

Tropical Storm Raymond was a moderately strong tropical storm that caused significant flooding across portions of western Mexico in October 2025. The nineteenth named storm of the 2025 Pacific hurricane season, Raymond developed from an area of disturbed weather off the coast of southwestern Mexico. The disturbance began to gradually organize and became a tropical depression on October 9. The system later strengthened into a tropical storm while paralleling the Pacific coast of Mexico, reaching maximum sustained winds of 60 mph (95 km/h) and a minimum central pressure of 998 mbar (29.47 inHg) on October 10. However, wind shear caused the system to quickly weaken and Raymond degenerated to a remnant low as it approached the southern tip of the Baja California peninsula.

Heavy rains associated with Raymond caused significant flooding throughout El Salvador, Mexico, and the Southwestern United States. Numerous homes were flooded and landslides left several communities isolated. Damage was most severe in the Mexican states of Guerrero, Jalisco, and Nayarit. The cyclone caused more than US$6.17 million in damage. Six people were killed - one in El Salvador, three in Oaxaca, one in Jalisco, and one in Arizona.
