According to NHC, the storm is expected to dissipate Monday after moving inland. The remnants will still produce heavy rainfall across the Mexican states of Veracruz, San Luis Potosi, and Tamaulipas through Monday. With several inches of rain expected, isolated flooding is possible. In areas of steep terrain, the heavy rain could also lead to mudslides.

After becoming a tropical depression late Saturday afternoon in the Bay of Campeche, the tropical system strengthened Sunday morning to become Tropical Storm Barry.
