At 900 PM MDT (0300 UTC), the center of Tropical Storm Dora was

moving toward the west-northwest near 13 mph (20 km/h).  A west-

HAZARDS AFFECTING LAND
----------------------
SURF:  Swells generated by Dora will continue to affect portions
of the coast of southwest Mexico through early Wednesday, and also
affect portions of the coast of the southern Baja California
peninsula over the next day or two. These swells are likely to
cause life-threatening surf and rip current conditions. Please
consult products from your local weather office.
