El Salvador's President Nayib Bukele declared a state of emergency on Sunday over tropical storm Pilar, which the U.S. National Hurricane Center says is expected to dump heavy rains and cause floods along the coast within the next 48 hours.
The government issued a "red" alert, the highest of a four-level scale, and suspended classes. The emergency decree will enable the government to direct funds to handle the situation.
