HAZARDS AFFECTING LAND ---------------------- WIND: Tropical storm conditions are possible within the watch area later this morning. RAINFALL: Bud is expected to produce 2 to 4 inches of rain with isolated totals of 6 inches across southern and eastern Sonora in northwestern Mexico through Saturday.
