DISCUSSION AND OUTLOOK
----------------------
At 900 PM MDT (0300 UTC), the center of Tropical Depression Olaf was
located near latitude 24.7 North, longitude 113.3 West. The
depression is now moving toward the west near 8 mph (13 km/h). A
turn toward the southwest is expected by Saturday night, with this 
motion continuing into early next week.
 
Maximum sustained winds have decreased to near 35 mph (55 km/h) with
higher gusts. Additional weakening is expected during the next
couple of days, and Olaf is forecast to degenerate to a
post-tropical remnant low tomorrow morning.
 
The estimated minimum central pressure is 1003 mb (29.62 inches).
 
 
HAZARDS AFFECTING LAND
----------------------
SURF:  Swells generated by Olaf will affect portions of the coasts
of Nayarit and Sinaloa through this evening, and portions of the
west coast of Baja California Sur through tomorrow.  These swells
are likely to cause life-threatening surf and rip current
conditions.  Please consult products from your local weather office.
