Aletta is gone

As of 2 PM Pacific Time earlier this afternoon, Aletta, which had already degenerated into a tropical depression, is gone. She brought about 2 inches of rain to Acapulco, and seems to have done more good than harm in her brief existance. Weak tropical storms like Aletta are often beneficial to areas needing moisture, as they are not much more than a really big rain storm. Wind damage from these small storms is not likely, but they can quickly alleviate drought conditions with the large amount of tropical moisture they contain.
