This document discusses several storms that impacted Mexico in 2013, particularly Hurricanes Barbara and Manuel and Tropical Storm Ingrid. Manuel struck Acapulco as a tropical storm in September, causing widespread flooding and mudslides that led to over 80 deaths. Ingrid also hit Mexico at the same time, with the combined effects of the two storms leaving over 1 million people affected. Manuel later reformed over the Pacific and threatened to cause additional damage in northern Mexico. The document provides storm tracks and summaries of the impacts of the various storms.
