Translated from Notimex:

Governor Félix González Canto has decreed a red alert for the southern parts of Quintana Roo due to the imminent arrival of hurricane Dean. The northern area of the state, including Cancun, Cozumel and Isla Mujeres remain in orange alert while the storm continues on its current trajectory.

Approximately 7 p.m. tropical storm strength winds will be felt along the coast. Dean should make landfall near Majahual, 190 miles south of Cancun, at two a.m. Tuesday, and at about 10 a.m. continue across the Yucatan, Campeche and the Gulf of Mexico.
