AGATHA HAS MOVED INTO THE HIGHEST TERRAIN IN CENTRAL AMERICA WHICH
HAS TAKEN ITS TOLL ON THE CYCLONE.  SURFACE OBSERVATIONS INDICATE
THAT THE LOW-LEVEL CIRCULATION HAS DISSIPATED...THEREFORE THIS WILL
BE THE LAST ADVISORY ON THIS SYSTEM.
 
SATELLITE IMAGES SHOW A LARGE AREA OVER CLOUDINESS AND THUNDERSTORMS
OVER MUCH OF GUATEMALA...EL SALVADOR...WESTERN HONDURAS...AND
PORTIONS OF BELIZE.  ALTHOUGH THE TROPICAL CYCLONE HAS
DISSIPATED...THE POTENTIAL FOR HEAVY RAINFALL...FLASH-FLOODS AND
MUDSLIDES WILL CONTINUE OVER MUCH OF THESE AREAS DURING THE NEXT
DAY OR TWO.  AS INDICATED IN THE NHC PUBLIC ADVISORY...MAXIMUM
STORM TOTAL RAINFALL AMOUNTS FROM THIS SYSTEM COULD REACH 30
INCHES.
