The U.S. National Hurricane Center says Tropical Storm Barry has formed and is expected to bring heavy rain to Mexico’s southeastern coast over the next few days.

Barry, the second named storm of this year's Atlantic hurricane season, became a tropical depression by Sunday night, when it made landfall shortly before 11 p.m. ET. It made landfall over Mexico's east coast about 15 miles south-southeast of Tampico, according to the U.S. National Hurricane Center in Miami.

A tropical storm warning is in effect for the southeast coast of Mexico from Boca de Catan southward to Tecolutla.
