Rain in Zapotiltic: What You Need to Know
What sets Zapotiltic apart is that it's a town in southern Jalisco near the Nevado de Colima volcano. What it shares with the rest of Jalisco is a climate driven by North American monsoon convective storms, intensified along the Pacific coast by hurricane moisture.
Urban drainage failure over buried rivers and coastal storm flooding shows up often enough in this part of Jalisco that it's built into how people in Zapotiltic think about the weather, not treated as a rare event.
Zapotiltic's radar coverage draws on Mexico's national water authority, CONAGUA, with scans updating every 5 minutes. What lands on the map is the rain itself over Zapotiltic — not an averaged forecast for the surrounding region.
