DISCUSSION AND OUTLOOK
----------------------
At 900 PM MDT (0300 UTC), the center of Tropical Storm Genevieve was
located near latitude 24.2 North, longitude 113.2 West. Genevieve is
moving toward the northwest near 10 mph (17 km/h), and this general
motion is expected to continue during the next few days.  On the
forecast track, the center of Genevieve is expected to gradually
move away from the Baja California peninsula.
 
Maximum sustained winds have decreased to near 65 mph (100 km/h) 
with higher gusts.  Continued weakening is expected, and Genevieve 
is forecast to become a tropical depression Friday night and a 
remnant low this weekend.
 
Tropical-storm-force winds extend outward up to 90 miles (150 km)
from the center.  An automated observing site near Puerto Cortes
recently reported a wind gust of 42 mph (68 km/h).
 
The estimated minimum central pressure is 989 mb (29.21 inches).
 
 
HAZARDS AFFECTING LAND
----------------------
WIND:  Tropical storm conditions are expected to continue within
the warning area in the southwestern Baja California peninsula
during the next few hours, especially over higher terrain.
 
RAINFALL:  Genevieve is expected to produce additional rainfall
amounts of 1 to 2 inches across southern Baja California Sur.
 
SURF:  Large swells produced by Genevieve are spreading northward
along the coast of the Baja California peninsula.  These swells are
likely to cause life-threatening surf and rip current conditions.
