DISCUSSION AND OUTLOOK
----------------------
At 400 AM CDT (0900 UTC), the center of Tropical Depression
Nineteen-E was located near latitude 15.1 North, longitude 101.5
West. The depression is moving toward the west near 3 mph (6 km/h),
and this general motion is expected to continue today. A turn
toward the west-northwest and northwest is expected Friday and
Friday night, followed by a northward motion by Saturday night. On
the forecast track, the system is expected to move parallel to the
southwestern coast of Mexico through Saturday and then pass near or
over the west-central coast of Mexico Saturday night.
Maximum sustained winds are near 35 mph (55 km/h) with higher gusts.
Strengthening is forecast during the next few days. The depression
is expected to become a tropical storm later today and then become
a hurricane by late Friday or Friday night.
The estimated minimum central pressure is 1007 mb (29.74 inches).
HAZARDS AFFECTING LAND
----------------------
RAINFALL: Tropical Depression Nineteen-E's outer rainbands may
produce heavy rainfall of 1 to 4 inches along coastal areas of
Guerrero and Michoacan. This rainfall could lead to flash flooding
as well as possible landslides in areas of rugged terrain.
The system is then forecast to turn north and northeast this weekend
and may bring locally heavy rainfall to coastal areas of Jalisco,
Nayarit including Islas Marias, and southeastern Sinaloa. This
rainfall could lead to flash flooding and landslides in areas of
rugged terrain.
SURF: Swells generated by the depression are affecting portions of
the coast of southwestern Mexico and will spread northward to the
coast of west-central Mexico by Friday. These swells are likely to
cause life-threatening surf and rip current conditions. Please
consult products from your local weather office.
