🌀 Lester · Tropical Storm · 40 mph
Tropical Storm Lester was a short-lived tropical cyclone that caused severe rainfall and flash flooding in southern Mexico in September 2022.

The disturbance spawned an area of low pressure two days later, which quickly organized into a tropical depression at 18:00 UTC on September 15. Moving slowly northwestward, the depression strengthened into Tropical Storm Lester the following morning. Tropical Storm: peak winds of 40 mph (35 knots), lowest pressure 1005 mb. September 15 – September 17, 2022. Landfall: September 17 at 35 mph, 15.8°N 97.0°W. Accumulated cyclone energy: 0.6.
