Tropical Storm John was set to lash parts of Mexico with more rain on Friday, forecasters said, though it is expected to weaken as it sweeps the country’s southwestern coast for a second time this week.
The storm made landfall in southwestern Mexico as a Category 3 hurricane on Monday, battering the state of Guerrero and its resort city of Acapulco. Flash floods unleashed mudslides that killed at least five people and left many others stranded by rising waters.
