DISCUSSION AND OUTLOOK
----------------------
At 600 PM MDT (0000 UTC), the center of Tropical Storm Bud was
located near latitude 22.6 North, longitude 109.8 West.  Bud is
moving toward the north-northwest near 7 mph (11 km/h).  A faster
northward motion should begin later tonight.  On the forecast track,
the center of Bud is expected to cross southern Baja California Sur
later this evening and move over the Gulf of California on Friday.
The weakening cyclone, or its remnants, are expected to move over
mainland Mexico by Friday night or early SaturdStewartay and then
dissipate.

Maximum sustained winds are near 45 mph (75 km/h) with higher
gusts.  Gradual weakening is forecast during the next 48 hours.  Bud
is forecast to weaken tonight as the cyclone moves across the Baja
California peninsula.  The system should decay into a tropical
depression by Friday and become a remnant low when it moves inland
over mainland Mexico.

Tropical-storm-force winds extend outward up to 105 miles (165 km)
from the center. During the past couple of hours, a Mexican Navy
automatic weather station located in the Port of Cabo San Lucas
reported a sustained wind of 41 mph (66 km/h).  An unofficial
observation from the marina in Cabo San Lucas recently reported a
sustained wind of 44 mph (70 km/h) and a gust to 66 mph (106 km/h).

The estimated minimum central pressure is 1000 mb (29.53 inches).


HAZARDS AFFECTING LAND
----------------------
WIND:  Tropical storm conditions are occurring within the warning
area now, and those conditions will continue through tonight.
Tropical storm conditions are possible within the Baja California
Sur watch area tonight and continuing into Friday morning.  Tropical
storm conditions are possible within the mainland Mexico watch area
beginning Friday morning.

RAINFALL:  Bud is expected to produce 2 to 4 inches of rain with
isolated totals of 6 inches across southern portions of Baja
California Sur and southern and eastern Sonora in northwestern
Mexico through Saturday.  These rains could cause life-threatening
flash floods and mud slides.

Bud is expected to produce additional rainfall of 1 to 2 inches
across much of Sinaloa and Durango, with isolated maximum amounts
of 3 inches.

SURF:  Swells generated by Bud will continue to affect portions of
the coast of southwestern Mexico, western mainland Mexico, and the
southern Baja California Peninsula during the next day or so.
These swells are likely to cause life-threatening surf and rip
current conditions. Please consult products from your local weather
office.
