On the forecast track, the center of Genevieve is forecast to move parallel to but well offshore the coast of southern Mexico during the next day or so. Maximum sustained winds have increased to near 45 mph (75 km/h) with higher gusts. Rapid strengthening is anticipated during the next day or two, and Genevieve is forecast to become a hurricane on Monday and a major hurricane by Tuesday. Tropical-storm-force winds extend outward up to 105 miles (165 km) from the center. The estimated minimum central pressure is 1004 mb (29.65 inches). HAZARDS AFFECTING LAND ---------------------- SURF: Large swells generated by this system will begin affecting portions of the southern coast of Mexico on Monday and Tuesday.
