At least 40 people have died as Mexico is battered by two powerful storms simultaneously, one on its east coast and the other on its west.
Hurricane Ingrid sent thousands to shelters on Mexico's eastern Gulf Coast before it was downgraded to a tropical storm just before it made landfall, the BBC reported.
It is dumping torrential rains as it moves west-northwest through Tamaulipas state at a speed of 13kmh.
On the Pacific coast, Tropical Storm Manuel also caused widespread damage. Twenty-two people were killed in the region, most of them in Guerrero state. The other victims were in Hidalgo, Puebla and Oaxaca.
A landslide in the town of Altotonga, in eastern Veracruz state, has killed 12 people, and rescue services are looking for survivors.
Ingrid weakens
Ingrid made landfall near the town of La Pesca in north-eastern Tamaulipas state on Monday local time. It has weakened since hitting land, and is expected to dissipate later on Tuesday but forecasters at the Miami-based National Hurricane Center (NHC) warned Ingrid could still cause deadly flash floods and mudslides.
They said the storm could dump as much as 38cm of rain over parts of eastern Mexico.
About 6000 people were evacuated as the category one hurricane approached the coast, and celebrations marking Mexico's independence day were cancelled in many coastal towns.
State oil company Pemex said it had evacuated three platforms off the coast of Tamaulipas and closed two dozen wells in the area.
Acapulco hard hit
Ingrid arrived just a day after Tropical Storm Manuel hit Mexico's Pacific coast. The resort city of Acapulco was among those worst hit.
Eleven people are confirmed to have died there, six of them members of the same family whose house collapsed in a landslide.
Cars were dragged away in fast-flowing floodwaters and the airport has been closed.
Three more people were killed in landslides in surrounding Guerrero state. More than 20,000 homes have lost power.
Government ministers have been dispatched to the most affected regions.
The last time the country was hit by two tropical storms in the span of 24 hours was in 1958, according to National Weather Service co-ordinator Juan Manuel Caballero.
