DISCUSSION AND 48-HOUR OUTLOOK
------------------------------
At 700 AM CDT (1200 UTC), the center of Tropical Depression Two-E
was located near latitude 15.3 North, longitude 97.1 West. The
depression is moving toward the north-northeast near 6 mph (10
km/h), and this motion is likely to continue during the next 24
hours or so. On the forecast track, the center of the tropical
cyclone is expected to move inland across the state of Oaxaca later
today.

Maximum sustained winds remain near 35 mph (55 km/h) with higher
gusts. The depression still has the opportunity to become a tropical
storm later today before the center moves inland. Weakening is
anticipated thereafter.

The estimated minimum central pressure is 1005 mb (29.68 inches).


HAZARDS AFFECTING LAND
----------------------
RAINFALL: The depression is expected to produce total rainfall
accumulations of 8 to 12 inches across the Mexican state of Oaxaca
with isolated maximum totals of 20 inches possible.  This rainfall
is likely to produce life-threatening flash floods and mudslides.

WIND:  Tropical storm conditions are expected to begin within the
warning area later this morning.
