Credit: Reuters/Daniel LeClair By Sarah Grainger GUATEMALA CITY | Sat Sep 25, 2010 11:02pm EDT GUATEMALA CITY (Reuters) - Tropical Depression Matthew churned over Guatemala on Saturday, soaking already waterlogged sugar and coffee farms, and the government warned that mudslides could occur in the coming days. Guatemalan President Alvaro Colom told people to stay home and urged communities in mountains and near rivers to take shelter inland as fast-moving Matthew looked set to slow and hang over Guatemala and Mexico's Yucatan Peninsula. The storm lost force as it came in from the Gulf of Honduras and its maximum sustained winds decreased to near 35 mph late on Saturday. The U.S. National Hurricane Center said the danger had not yet passed. "We must emphasize that despite the expected weakening of Matthew, torrential rains will continue over most of Central America during the next several days," the center said. Although it was expected to weaken, Matthew still had the potential to bring 6 to 10 inches to Guatemala and southern Mexico and as much as 15 inches to some areas. The storm was moving west-northwest and could become almost stationary by Sunday night. The hurricane center warned Matthew's rains could set off mudslides and flash floods. Matthew is seen dying out over the Mexican states of Tabasco and Chiapas and looked less likely to reach oil-producing areas of the southern Gulf of Mexico, but Mexican President Felipe Calderon said in his Twitter feed that his government was on alert. Coffee and sugar farmers face rain on already clogged fields from this year's active hurricane season that has already battered the region. Growers worry rain from Matthew could delay the start of coffee and sugar harvests. "A lot of ground is already saturated and it could result in landslides," Guatemala's emergency services agency, CONRED, said in a statement. "We expect that in some places there could be flooding and rivers overflowing," said Eddy Morales, director of the country's meteorological institute. High winds and heavy rain soaked Honduran tourist resorts along the Caribbean coast and hundreds of people spent the night in Honduran government-run shelters but were relieved the fast-moving storm left towns unscathed. "The storm looked really dangerous and the rains were heavy, but in the end it passed without doing much," said Juan Angel Delgado, a retired resident of the tourist town of Tela. Matthew hit Nicaragua's Atlantic coast on Friday afternoon, powered along the Honduran coast before hitting Belize and Guatemala on Saturday. Sugar losses might be serious because cane fields are still flooded from earlier rains. Coffee trees also risk disease and fungus from too much moisture. Central America produced 4.43 million tonnes of sugar in the 2009/10 harvest and was hoping for a larger crop this year. 1 2 Next World Green Business Add a Comment *We welcome comments that advance the story directly or with relevant tangential information.
