Rain in Montemorelos: What You Need to Know

A citrus-growing town in the fertile valley south of Monterrey, Montemorelos experiences a climate typical of Nuevo Leon, where tropical storms and hurricane remnants funneled by the Sierra Madre Oriental into river basins governs most rainfall.

Behind the Montemorelos rain map sits CONAGUA data, refreshed on a 5-minute cycle. That means the map tracks actual precipitation over Montemorelos, not a statewide estimate.
