Maximum sustained winds remain near 60 mph (95 km/h) with higher 
gusts.  Slow strengthening is expected during the next day or two, 
and Kevin could become a hurricane Monday night or Tuesday.

HAZARDS AFFECTING LAND
----------------------
SURF:  Swells generated by Kevin are affecting portions of the coast
of southwestern Mexico, and are expected to spread northward to the
coast of Baja California Sur during 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.
