Tropical Storm Alberto has made landfall near Tampico, Mexico, with 45 mph winds, as reported by the National Hurricane Center. The storm is expected to bring significant impacts as it moves further inland.

As Alberto pushes inland, there is a high risk of flash flooding and urban flooding in the affected areas. Tropical storm-force winds are likely to persist, posing a threat to communities in the storm's path.

The storm's reach extends for hundreds of miles from its center, causing widespread damage in northeast Mexico and southern Texas. Coastal flooding, heavy rains, and strong winds have already been reported in these regions.

Residents in the affected areas are advised to stay indoors and follow all safety precautions. Emergency services are on high alert to respond to any incidents that may arise due to the storm.

Authorities are closely monitoring the situation and providing updates to the public as the storm progresses. It is crucial for residents to stay informed and heed any evacuation orders or warnings issued by local officials.

As Tropical Storm Alberto continues its path, it is essential for everyone to prioritize their safety and take necessary measures to protect themselves and their property from the storm's impacts.
