Tropical Storm Rachel downgraded as high winds and rain turn inward

What the coverage shows

All three outlets frame Rachel as a weakening storm whose effects are shifting inland, but they emphasize different angles. The New York Times pairs Rachel with Hurricane Simon and foregrounds flood risks for Mexico and the Southwestern U.S., while NPR focuses on forecasters, coastal flooding, and a broader El Niño warning. CNN is the only outlet here that specifically highlights damage to homes in Long Beach.
